Down to the last 104,000, Jimmy Guerrero was all-in with the 
and had a kicker problem. Ying Lin Chua held the dominating 
and there was not much hope yet on the 
flop. The 
turn was a huge equity boost for the Frenchman but he missed all the outs on the 
river.

Jun Wah Yap raised to 20,000 and Wai Kiat Lee three-bet to 60,000 from the very next seat. Both Malaysians had been very jovial already and cracked up the table with their banter. Lee was seemingly trying to get Yap to fold and then joked "no ace no ace" once he was called.
Yap asked for an ace and checked the 
flop. Lee continued for 40,000 and that was all it took to win the pot.
