Dong Busts Xu to Close out Day 1D
Canlin Chan and Andrew An looked all set to play a massive pot with the two starting a pre-flop raising war. An had had 17,000 in front of him on the button when we arrived and Chen had just re-raised a rather hefty 55,000 but An let it go as soon as there was a cry of ‘all-in’ and ‘call’ on the other table.
We came running and discovered that the short-stacked Jianfeng Xu ha moved all-in for his last 24,000 from under-the-gun and Yu Dong had re-raised to isolate. As soon as the action concluded between Chan and An the cards were turned over and Xu discovered the bad news.
Jianfeng Xu: 
Yu Dong: 
The 
meant Xu either needed running cards to either win or chop and the 
turn left him drawing dead. The 
river concluded the hand, Xu’s tournament, and Day 1D.
The 11 survivors all earned themselves an HK$6,000 payday and a Day 2 seat worth HK$38,000 and here’s how they are stacking up:
