Pham Eliminated by Lim

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Teddy Pham
Teddy Pham

Among the early casualties well outside of the money has also been the jovial Tien Quyet "Teddy" Pham. Word on the street is that he was coolered with {q-Hearts}{q-Spades} against the {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds} of Yohwan Lim when both had near even stacks. A low board missed both and Pham was down to around 20,000, then bowed out after in quick succession.

Another Double for Park

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

There were two empty seats over on table six and the next player at risk was Sunghwa Park. He had previously doubled and was up against Kartik Ved this time in a typical coin flip.

Sunghwa Park: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Kartik Ved: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The board ran out {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{5-Spades}{k-Clubs} and Park spiked the king on the river to stay in contention.

Tang Is Not Over the Moon

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Devan Tang
Devan Tang

On a completed board of {j-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades}{q-Hearts}{q-Spades}, Seung Joon Moon pushed all-in for 60,000 and he was up against two opponents. Devan Tang was deep in the tank and the clock was called on him, after which he was given 30 seconds to act. With two seconds left, Tang called all-in and the third player in the hand folded.

Moon flashed the {q-Clubs}{j-Spades} for the nut full house and a disgusted Tang tossed his {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} into the muck.

Tran Doubles Through Vu

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Just before the blinds went up, a preflop contest took place between Tuan The Vu and Anh Hoai Tran with the latter as the at-risk player for 82,000.

Anh Hoai Tran: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Tuan The Vu: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

The {q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{8-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{2-Hearts} board was no threat for the superior pair and Tran doubled. Vu was left with fewer than one full blind and busted soon after.

Massive Double for Mudgal Against Dinh

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Dinh Xuan Dinh
Dinh Xuan Dinh

Dinh Xuan Dinh had raised from an early position and was called by two players including Dvahal Mudgal in the small blind.

Mudgal check-raised the {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop from 9,000 to 30,000 and Dinh was the only caller. The {6-Spades} turn was bet for 55,000 by Mudgal, who then snap-called all-in following the shove by Dinh.

Dhaval Mudgal: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}
Dinh Xuan Dinh: {a-Spades}{2-Clubs}

Mudgal had already locked up the large double as a meaningless {5-Diamonds} fell on the river. A few minutes later, he also knocked out Dinh to jump above half a million in chips.

Yong Left on a Nub

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

On the tail end of a heads-up pot between Ha Thanh Duong and Wai Keong Yong, the board showed {10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{j-Spades}{k-Hearts}. Duong bet small and then called a raise to 80,000 by Yong, who sighed and exposed the {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for two pair. Duong had the {8-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a flush.

Soon after, Yong three-bet jammed for 36,000 and Dennis Ng called all-in for fewer than that while the initial raiser folded.

Dennis Ng: {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Wai Keong Yong: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

"Come on, no jack or ten," Yong demanded. However, the {8-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{10-Spades} board delivered the next blow as his stack was reduced to very few blinds.
