Updated Counts in the Field

Level 5 : Blinds 0/0, 3,000 ante

Ermin and Chow Forced to Reload

Level 5 : Blinds 0/0, 3,000 ante

Hing Yaung Chow saw his early start come to a crashing halt as he was all-in with a short stack, holding the 107. Ivan Ermin tabled the AJ and they were up against a White Horse Club player with the KK. Both players at risk had to reload following a AQ68K runout.

At the same time, Wai Kin Yong and one further player lost their final bullet and Eng Soon Ewe entered for the first time. This brings the field to 16 players out of 21 entries remaining.

Yap Scores a Healthy Double

Level 5 : Blinds 0/0, 3,000 ante

Jun Wah Yap forced out one opponent as Wei Hsiang Yeu folded to two all-ins behind with a White Horse Club player looking up the 164,000 of Yap. Their QJ had two live cards against Yap's AK and turned a straight on AKQ10. Yap needed a king or ace to avoid defeat and did so thanks to the K to double.

Yu Folds the River

Level 4 : Blinds 0/0, 2,000 ante

In a heads-up pot to the Q109 flop, the action checked to Winfred Yu on the button as he made it 10,000 to go. His opponent raises to 40,000 and Yu came along. Both checked the 9 turn and the 8 river completed the board.

Yu's opponent bet 80,000 and that won the pot uncontested, as Yu let go once he used one additional time bank.

Teoh Beats van Krevelen in Showdown

Level 4 : Blinds 0/0, 2,000 ante

Rene van Krevelen had implemented a limping strategy and one of these hands brought a post flop action when he called two bets by Ming Hong Teoh on the AK8 flop and J turn. They checked the K river with 80,000 in the middle and van Krevelen tabled the Q9 for a missed gutshot and flush draw.

Teoh had that beat with the A8 for two pair and won the pot.

Lee Vying for the Number One Spot

Level 4 : Blinds 0/0, 2,000 ante
Wai Kiat Lee
Wai Kiat Lee

All chips go in the middle in three-way action as a White Horse Club player on the button, Wai Kiat Lee from under the gun and Wai Kin Yong from one seat over splash their chips in.

Button: AJ
Wai Kin Yong: 109
Wai Kiat Lee: AQ

The Q87710 board kept Lee ahead all the way as he dodged plenty of outs to knock out an opponent and force Yong to use a bullet on his second entry. Lee was the first player to register for the event and currently sits near the top of the leaderboard.

Yeu Chips Up in a Rare Showdown Without All-In

Level 4 : Blinds 0/0, 2,000 ante

Wei Hsiang Yeu bet 30,000 on a heads-up turn of AK67 and one of the current big stacks called from the next seat. Both opted to check the J on the river and Yeu flashed the J10 for a pair of jacks. That was good enough to win the pot, as his opponent mucked.

In the meanwhile, Lun Loon has entered the field to make it 19 total entries.

Both Teoh Brothers on the Rise

Level 4 : Blinds 0/0, 2,000 ante

At the same time on neighbouring tables, Ming Hong Teoh and Paul Teoh increased their stacks. For the former, it was a knockout of Nobuaki Sasaki that earned him a significant boost while Sasaki became the second player to bust.

Paul Teoh bet the pot in three-way action and then called the shove of a White Horse Club player on the AKQ flop. He was up against KJ and tabled the J10 for broadway.

Nothing changed with the Q turn and 8 river to unleash one bullet.

Teoh Chops With Lee

Level 4 : Blinds 0/0, 2,000 ante

Ming Hong Teoh limped in the hijack and so did the cutoff. Wai Kiat Lee then raised to 10,000 on the button for Teoh to shove for 156,000 total. Lee eventually sigh-called within the allocated 30-second shot clock.

Ming Hong Teoh: AK
Wai Kiat Lee: AQ

Both players hit the low end of the stream on the 9876K board to ensure a chop.
