Level 5
: 200/300, 300 ante
Edward Yam opened the action with a raise to 800 from the cutoff, with the player in the big blind choosing to defend. However, that was as exciting as the action got, with the 
flop bringing a check from the big blind and a 900 continuation bet from Yam, which was enough to take it down.
Hsiao Yun Yang has continued to climb, and we caught him in action in yet another chunky pot, this time against Bo Wei Tong. Action was picked up on the river with over 12,000 already in the pot and the community cards spread 
.
Tong (middle position) let out for 3,000 and neighbor Yang reached for raising chips once more, making it 13,000 to go in total. While he did not look thrilled about it, Tong pushed in the call, but could only slide his cards into the muck when Yang rolled over 
for the nut flush.

: 100/200, 200 ante
Every time we catch Hsiao Yun Yang in a pot, he's re-raising, and that trend continued in a hand against one of the more recent Day 1A entrants, Graeme Siow.
The Singaporean had not long taken his seat, while Yang had evidently been busy since the last time we caught him in action and was sitting on a stack close to 100,000.
It was Siow the man to kick things off with an under-the-gun raise to 700. Action folded around to Yang who reached for raising chips, and he casually three-bet to 3,100 in total. The blinds bowed out and Siow made the call to take the action heads-up to a flop of 
, which was checked by both players.
The 
turn saw Siow take a stab for 2,500 and Yang made a quick call to bring in the 
river.
Siow led out again, this time for 5,000 and Yang did not take long to get back to his aggressive ways, tossing out a re-raise to 13,000 in total. Siow mulled it over but eventually gave it up, leaving Yang to extend his lead still further.

Chen An Lin is off to a decent start, winning a sizable pot from tablemate Hao Xiang Wang. It was Lin the man in the driving seat initially, opening the action with a raise to 500 from under-the-gun. Hsu Pei Shun made the call from one seat over, with Wang (small blind) and the player in the big blind coming along for the ride.
So it was four-way action to the 
flop, which saw checks all around. The 
turn saw Wang take the betting lead, firing out 3,100, which only Lin called.
The 
river paired the board and did not slow the action any, with Wang reaching for a handful of blue 5k chips and splashing them into the pot for a bet of 8,400. Lin thought it over for maybe 30-seconds but made the call.
Wang triumphantly tabled 
for trip tens and looked crestfallen when Lin rolled over 
for the turned Broadway straight, which was good for the pot.
