Chong Notches Up Another Knockout

Level 9 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Victor Chong remains below the starting stack but has just sent another opponent to the rail. A short-stacked Wai Kok "Peter" Sim was all-in with the {a-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} and Chong was trailing with the {a-Spades}{3-Spades}. However, the {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{3-Hearts} board delivered the unlikely blow eventually.

Crawshaw Takes the Lead for Now

Level 9 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Kok Weng Beh
Kok Weng Beh

Over an table two, a massive pot emerged from a battle of the blinds and it resulted in the elimination of Ko Weng Beh. The latter min-raised out of the small blind and Hamish Crawshaw called in the big blind.

The {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop was bet by Beh for 33,000 and Crawshaw called. After the {7-Spades} turn, Beh checked and subsequently called a bet worth 66,000 before the {j-Spades} river completed the board.

Beh checked agin and Crawshaw jammed for more than three times the pot. A reluctant payoff by Beh followed and Crawshaw tabled {j-Clubs}{3-Hearts} for quads. Both stacks were counted and Beh was covered by a small margin to hit the rail.

More Than 70 Entries Already

Level 9 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Besides new players, those unfortunate to lose all their chips are also jumping into the action once more. The latest trio for which this applied to has been Kartik Ved, Phachara Wongwichit and Wayne Heung. For the latter, his {k-Spades}{10-Clubs} flopped an open-ended straight draw but the {k-Clubs}{j-Spades} for the middle pair by Hoang Huy Tran held up.

Zhang Rivers the Superior Pair

Level 10 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Just before the blinds went up, Paul Phua raised to 19,000. He was called by Chi Zhang on the button and Ling Tien Loon also came along from the big blind. The {a-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Spades} flop was checked to Zhang and he made it 22,000 to go, only Phua called.

Both checked down the {7-Spades} turn and {k-Spades} river, to which Phua tabled his {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. However, Zhang had that beat with the {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} and shrugged "royal flush draw" while collecting the pot.

Lee Binks a Small Pot

Level 10 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Wai Kiat Lee re-entered not that long ago and defended his big blind against Phachara Wongwichit. "How much do you have behind?" Wongwichit in the two seat asked while Lee's chips in the eight seat were mostly covered by the dealer and shot clock.

"Around one million," Lee joked. He then check-called a small bet on the {q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop. Both knuckled down the {2-Hearts} turn and {2-Spades} river after which Lee won the pot with the {8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}.
