Jinnan Zhao raised to 500 and Changdong Ren called. Jingwen Zhou jammed her last 2,200 and earned two calls. On the 8♥6♠6♣ flop, Ren check-folded to a bet and the cards were tabled.
Jingwen Zhou: J♠10♦
Jinnan Zhao: 7♦5♦
The 7♥ turn paired up Zhao to take the lead but the 9♣ river gave Zhou the nut straight for the triple up.
There are now up to 15 players registered and two tables are running, which are soon to be three. Below are the latest additions to the field, all of which hail from China.
Qiheng Liu has more than made up for the bad start as he just earned a full double through Jingwen Zhou at the start of the second level. They got it in after the 10♥7♦5♥K♣ turn with Liu holding A♥K♥ for top pair and the nut flush draw.
Zhou had outs with her Q♥J♥ but the J♣ river was not among them.

The waiting line at the registration desk has subsided and most of those wishing into the Opening Freeroll have now been satisfied. That leaves a lot more room for players to enter Day 1a of the Circuit Main Event which has received two new faces on table 45.
Qiheng Liu had lost some chips early on but then got a little of it back when he forced out Changdong Ren on the A♦Q♥Q♦Q♣ turn with a modest bet of 800. Once Ren folded, he was shown the A♠A♥ for aces full of queens which was a pretty hand indeed but earned not much of a profit.
Heads-up to the 10♠9♠5♣ flop, initial raiser Qiheng Liu and Xiutong Li invested 400 each and the former then checked the 9♦ turn. Li bet 700 for Liu to check-call and the same action repeated with the 7♥ on the river albeit for 1,500.
Liu exposed his [cQs] for tens and nines but Li had that beat with the A♣9♣ for trips nines.
The clock was reset to the start of level one and with eight players registered - of which four are currently seated - the first flight is now officially underway.
