Kun One-Outs Kei, Suri Seizes Lead

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
Wang Kun hits the river hard
Wang Kun hits the river hard

In what is probably one of the worst bad beats we have ever seen, Wang Kun has just made Chan Wing Kei’s day a whole lot worse.

We missed the pre-flop action but came running when a huge roar echoed through the card room and found Kun and Kei both on their feet with their hole cards face up on the table.

With the board reading {k-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {5-Spades} Kei had pocket kings for the flopped full house, but this is shockingly no good as Kun, holding {a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, had just rivered quads.

According to Justin Chan, who is seated at the same table, Kei and Kun became involved in a raising war on the turn with Kei the man to pull the trigger first and four-bet shove all-in with Kun making the call.

Kun had already picked up all his stuff and had packed his bag before the timely arrival of the river and Kei does not look best pleased.

“Sorry,” said Kun sheepishly as he stacked up his newly won chips. The only ray of sunshine for Kei is the fact that Kun did not have him covered but he has taken a big hit and is now down to 16,075 while Kun climbed to 75,000 after that timely catch.

There is also a new chip leader in the house, and India’s Bobbie Suri has usurped Wang Yuexin’s lead and is sitting on a stack of 127,000. According to Suri the majority of these came from Qiang Liu with the two playing a huge pot that turned out to be a bit of a cooler for Liu, who had pocket kings against the pocket aces of Suri. Liu did not survive the encounter but immediately bought back in again and is now playing a brand new stack over on one of the other tournament tables.
