In the last hand before the break, William Teoh and Fu Chi Sze got into a preflop raising war in which the latter was the player at risk for 36,400.
Fu Chi Sze: K♦K♥
William Teoh: A♠10♠
The 8♠4♦3♠ flop and 5♣ turn gave Teoh a straight and flush draw. However, the 8♥ river was a brick and Teoh had to part ways with nearly two thirds of his stack.
