Thanarattrakul Knocked Out by Pamplona

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Kannapong Thanarattrakul
Kannapong Thanarattrakul

Kannapong Thanarattrakul was nowhere to be found anymore while Jeffrey Pamplona was sporting a large stack. Him and Mike Takayama confirmed the departure of the Thai, who according to the two players from the Philippines jammed a {9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{q-Spades} turn to get snapped off by Pamplona.

Kannapong Thanarattrakul: {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Jeffrey Pamplona: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

The {8-Spades} river was a formality already as the former big stack crashed out.

Crawshaw Eliminated in Three-Way All-In

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Hamish Crawshaw
Hamish Crawshaw

Hamish Crawshaw was all-in for 20,000 before the flop and that was called by Thanh Huy Le. Fuk On Wong then got it in over the top and Le called with the slightly covering stack.

Hamish Crawshaw: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Thanh Huy Le: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Fuk On Wong: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

The {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{3-Spades} board brought no miracle escape for Crawshaw or Le, the latter of which was left short and doubled the next hand.

Magbanua and Plivcs With Decent Stacks

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

The current average in level ten with 120 players out of 294 entries has reached 73,500 and two players with nearly two times as much are Jason Magbanua and Aigars Plivcs. They were just involved in a medium-sized pot to the {10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades}{q-Spades} turn on which Plivcs checked.

Magbanua bet 25,000 for slightly more than the pot and that was enough to take it down.

Double Knockout for Wu

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Two short stacks were all in including Witsarul Ketnarin and Kevin Ang with the latter tabling the {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}. Ketnarin had a pair in {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} but they were both crushed by the {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades} of Hao Kai Wu.

The board ran out {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and that ensured a double knockout. Kunal Patni also vanished shortly after as he was spotted on the way out of the Grand Hall as well.

Nguyen Felted by Lee

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Linh Phuong Dieu Nguyen
Linh Phuong Dieu Nguyen

A raise to 2,500 had been called and Junam Lee then three-bet to 13,500 to force out one opponent. Linh Phuong Dieu Nguyen had other plans and pushed all-in for 33,000 instead. Lee tanked for more than a minute and then called.

Linh Phuong Dieu Nguyen: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Junam Lee: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Nguyen was somewhat surprised and suspected a slowroll. The {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{7-Spades}{3-Hearts}{4-Clubs} board left her drawing dead on the turn and Lee apologised instantly.

Song Eliminated by Saquing

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
In Ho Song
In Ho Song

On the tail end of a hand between Moses Saquing in the small blind and In Ho Song from under the gun, the completed board showed {j-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. Saquing bet 15,000 as the first player to act and Song had just fewer than that behind, which he opted to call off.

Saquing tabled the {j-Hearts}{5-Spades} for two pair and Song briefly flashed {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for an inferior two pair before departing the tournament area.
