Two Small Pots for Ewe

Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

In a heads-up pot to the {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop, Eng Siang Ewe checked out of the big blind and then folded when Thinh Thai Chu bet on the button for 3,000.

One hand later, Chu opened to 4,000 in the cutoff for Ewe to call in the small blind and quickly check the {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{7-Hearts} flop. Another bet by Chu won the next small pot.

Chu Pays Off Chow

Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Thinh Thai Chu entered the field and drew the outer table. In pretty much the first hand he played, a pot of around 55,000 emerged to the {8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} river on which he checked. Hing Yaung Chow then bet 55,000 on the button and Chu mulled it over.

"Just call," he said in table chat and tossed in a single chip. Chow revealed the {k-Clubs}{4-Clubs} for the king-high flush and reclaimed more previously lost chips.

Chow Recovers Some Chips

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

Hing Yaung Chow bet the {a-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop on the outer tables to get called by Eng Siang Ewe and the latter then folded the {3-Diamonds} turn when facing another bet worth 10,000. "So beautiful," he sighed and exposed the {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.

Chow flashed an ace-king for the top pair and top kicker.

Beh Jams Into Chow

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

Vincent Huang raised to 5,000 from under the gun and collected the blinds and big blind ante.

One hand later, Kok Weng Beh raised to 4,000 and was called by Hing Yaung Chow as well as Hamish Crawshaw. Chi Zhang three-bet to 22,000 on the button and Beh reraised to 84,000. Chow now clicked it up to 166,000 and Crawshaw quickly folded.

Zhang gasped for a moment and then folded as well with a grin on the face while Beh called. Both players checked the {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop and Beh also checked the {5-Clubs} turn. Once Chow bet 60,000, an instant check-shove by Beh followed and that won the pot without any further resistance.

Zhang Enters With an Unusual First Hand

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

Chi Zhang tossed in calling chips from under the gun before any cards were dealt, thinking he was in the big blind which wasn't the case. A limped pot emerged and Zhang then bet the {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop for 3,000 to win the pot. With a big grin on the face, he exposed the {a-Hearts}{k-Spades} for the top pair and top kicker.
