Hand #54: Elliot Smith raised to 190,000 and won the pot uncontested.

Hand #55: Tianyuan Tang raised to 165,000 and Smith called, going to a flop of {a-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. Both players checked and the turn was the {j-Diamonds}. They also checked through to the {j-Hearts} river. Smith led out for 250,000 and Tang called, mucking when he saw Smith's {a-Diamonds}{6-Spades}.

Hand #56: Smith raised to 190,000 and found a call from Tang. The flop came {9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Spades} and Tang checked. Smith bet 125,000 and Tang raised it up to 280,000. Smith called.

The turn was the {9-Clubs} and Tang continued with a bet of 250,000. Smith called, going to a river of {8-Diamonds}. Tang bet 1,200,000 and Smith pushed forward a raise to 3,500,000. After a long time in the tank, Tang folded, giving up not just the pot but the chip lead.
