Celina Lee raised to 10,000 and Jun Obara three-bet to 30,000 out of the small blind, which Lee called. The flop fell {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and Obara continued for 30,000, then called the shove of Lee for 35,000 more.

Celine Lee: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Jun Obara: {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}

Lee already had a full house and only needed to fear running queens, jacks or aces in order to avoid elimination. The {10-Spades} turn locked uop things with quads, and the {6-Spades} river didn't matter anymore.

Right after, Peter Plater raised out of the small blind and Linh Tran shoved for 40,000 with ace-nine. Plater called with pocket fives and flopped a set to leave Tran empty-handed.

Last but not least, Ken Okada moved all in for 33,000 and Shengyu Li called in the big blind.

Ken Okada: {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades}
Shengyu Li: {10-Spades}{9-Spades}

The {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop improved Li, and Okada found no help anymore on the {6-Diamonds} turn and {2-Hearts} river.

Back over to table one, Sathesh Muthu raised to 12,000 and Mansour Matloubi called. Obara shoved out of the big blind and forced two folds.

In a nutshell, the field was reduced to just 11 players and the chips have been spashing around a fair bit in the last few minutes.
