Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Level 20 has been nuts so far and we have caught several huge hands that have recently played out but missed several more while these were going on.

In the first, it was a battle of the blinds between Day 1C frontrunner, Singapore’s Yah Loon Lim and Day 1B frontrunner Wei Guoliang. Lim opened the action with a raise from the small bind and Guoliang quickly shoved from the big blind, Lim called immediately and the cards were turned over.

Yah Loon Lim: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Wei Guoliang: {q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}

While Guoliang was the man to apply the pressure it looked like Lim actually had a hand and the {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{5-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {10-Clubs} board saw him climb to 365,000 while Guoliang dropped to 144,000.

Another man pocket jacks were good for was Ni Cangsheng and there was a three-way pre-flop between him, Quan Zhou and Lin Tran. It looked like Cangsheng was the man to shove first from the cutoff with Zhou getting the last of his chips in from the button and the action had folded around to Tran in the big blind, who peeked down at his cards and called instantly. Tran had both players covered and the cards were turned over.

Lin Tran: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Ni Cangsheng: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Quan Zhou: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

While the board ran out with four diamonds not a single player had one, meaning the {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} {k-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} board was a great one for Cangsheng’s fishhooks and he tripled up, Zhou headed for the rail and Tran took a bit of a hit, though still had a decent sized stack.

Cangsheng climbed to 531,000 after that spot of good fortune and Tran dropped to 579,000 after the hand.

While this was going on a big pot developed between Li Longyun and Liang Fu that saw the latter’s tournament come to a close. A player in the cutoff made it 26,000 to go and Longyun re-raised to 66,000 from the button before Fu three-bet to 175,000 from the big blind.

While the original raiser got out of the way Longyun was going nowhere and shipped in the rest of his chips. Committed to the hand after the three-betFu had no choice but to call the rest of his chips off and he did so and the cards were turned over.

Liang Fu held ace-ten offsuit but was trailing to Longyun’s {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} and with both players missing the board by mile Longyun’s kicker played and he stacked up to over 900,000 while Fu headed for the exit.
