The first three levels are completed and the screens show 300 entries for Day 1b of which 280 players remain, who all headed into a 15-minute break.

On their table, the final hand before the break showcased a pot between Ling Qin in the small blind and Weikang Wang from under the gun, which resulted in a pot of 8,500 to the ![]()
