Chan and Janik Chop One

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Scott Janik opened to 22,000 from the hijack and Justin Chan called from the big blind.

The flop came {9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and both players checked.

The turn brought the {J-Diamonds} and Chan bet 26,000. Janik shoved for about 80,000 and Chan called to put him at risk.

Chan: {J-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Janik: {J-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

Both players had flopped open-ended straight draws and paired their jacks on the turn, so a chop was guaranteed. The meaningless {Q-Diamonds} fell on the river and they split the pot.

Jack Wu Eliminated in 20th Place (₩4,480,000)

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Jack Wu
Jack Wu

Justin Chan informed the PokerNews live reporting team moments ago that Jack Wu got his last 37,000 chips in the middle before the flop holding {A-}{8-} against Chan's {K-}{J-}. The {K-}{J-}{X-} flop gave Chan two pair, and although Wu hit his ace on the {A-} turn, the river was a brick and Chan took the pot to send Wu to the cage.

Ivan Leow Comes Over the Top

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Ivan Leow raised to 23,000 from early position, Jwahyoung Kim called from the small blind, and Sparrow Cheung called from the big blind.

The flop fell {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and action checked to Leow who bet 29,000. Kim check-raised to 80,000, Cheung folded, and Leow re-popped it to 190,000, sending Kim into the tank. After about a minute, Kim folded the {A-Clubs} face up. Leow said he'd bluffed, and Kim seemed skeptical.

"You can show my cards," Leow said to the dealer as he pointed towards the muck before the chips were pushed his way.

Masanori Ishihara Eliminated in 19th Place (₩4,480,000)

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Masanori Ishihara
Masanori Ishihara

Mitsuru Sano shoved all in from the button, covering both blinds. After a pained couple of minutes of tanking, Masanori Ishihara called off for about 100,000 in the big blind.

Sano: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Ishihara: {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Ishihara needed help but shook his head as an ace was in the window. However, the {a-Hearts}{5-Spades}{q-Diamonds} flop gave him a straight draw. The {9-Hearts} just missed Ishihara, and the {3-Clubs} was no help either.

At the neighboring table, Yuichi Sumida lost the last of his chips after doubling up Justin Chan when Chan got there with {k-Spades}{8-Spades} against {a-}{10-}.

Masatoshi Tanaka Doubles Through Dmitrii Kovalevskii

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Masatoshi Tanaka shoved from the button for 93,000 and Dmitrii Kovalevskii called from the small blind to put him at risk.

Tanaka: {3-}{3-}
Kovalevskii: {Q-}{Q-}

Tanaka was way behind with the smaller of the two pocket pairs and needed help from the deck to preserve his tournament life. The board ran out {J-Spades}{7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Spades}{7-Diamonds} to give Tanaka threes full of sevens and he took the pot to double up.

Sano Over Noda in Huge Pot; Leow Busts

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

In what looked like a limped pot, Hiroyuki Noda bet 16,000 on a {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop and Mitsuru Sano made it 35,000 to go. Noda called and checked the {a-Spades} turn. Sano bet 85,000 and Noda raised to 230,000. Sano called after some thought. On the {4-Spades} river, Noda tanked awhile and checked. Sano bet 150,000 and got a fairly fast fold from Noda.

At another table, former chip leader Ivan Leow busted. We got there too late to see exactly what happened, but Taehoon Han had shown down {a-}{k-} on a board that ran out king-high.
