Chu Jams Up His Stack; Phua Near the Top

Level 12 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Chi-Jen Chu checked the {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{2-Hearts} turn and then called a bet worth 180,000 by Wai Leong Chan. The {k-Diamonds} fell on the river and Chu now pushed all-in for 429,000. Leong asked for an exact count and folded thereafter.

The same table brought another big pot soon after in which Paul Phua skyrocketed near the top of the leaderboard as Day 1 nears an end. According to the table, Phua had flopped a full house while Kannapong Thanarattrakul held trips and that left the latter on fumes.

Zhang checked the {a-Hearts} on the river and Chu now bet 260,000 for most of his stack. Zhang required three time banks, too, and opted to fold.

The mighty pair fell behind after the {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{8-Spades} flop and nothing changed anymore on the {6-Diamonds} turn nor {4-Clubs} river.
