Koon Takes from Yu

Level 12 : 0/0, 15,000 ante

Winfred Yu raised to 200,000 and was called by Jason Koon from one seat over. The flop fell {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and both players checked. On the {J-Hearts} turn, Yu bet 200,000 and Koon called.

The duo checked the {K-Spades} river and Koon said "I am pretty sure I hate this river card" before checking behind. Yu rolled over {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and Koon had that beat with the {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}.

Small Pot for Koon

Koon bet 65,000 and just Yu called. After the {A-Diamonds} turn, Yu checked and folded to a bet of 225,000.

Hau Lim Chan Eliminated in 12th Place (HKD2,227,400/$283,748)

Level 12 : 0/0, 15,000 ante
Hau Lim Chan
Hau Lim Chan

The run of Jason Koon continued as he dragged in yet another monster pot, claiming his next victim and moving his stack up to massive 11 million.

Over on the outer table the board showed {A-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and that's when Hau Lim Chan got his stack in against Koon, who snapped him off.

Hau Lim Chan: {9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Jason Koon: {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The straight over straight setup — the ace plays as a five — left Chan with just a ten for the chop, but the blank {Q-Diamonds} on the river sent him to the rail in 12th place for HKD2,227,400($283,748)

Tom Dwan Bubbles

Level 12 : 0/0, 15,000 ante
Tom Dwan
Tom Dwan

After coming back from the break, the two outer tables created action.

Marius Torbergsen opened to 210,000 and was called by Wai Leong Chan in the hijack and Paul Phua in the cutoff. The flop fell {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and all three players checked. On the {9-Diamonds} turn, Torbergsen bet 400,000 and both opponents folded.

One table over the flop showed {K-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and there were 310,000 in the middle. Jason Koon moved all in first to act and Tom Dwan called all in from the button for around 1.7 million. Once the other tables were finished, they turned over the cards.

Tom Dwan: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}
Jason Koon: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}

The {7-Clubs} turn and {8-Clubs} river changed nothing whatsoever and Dwan bubbled. There will now be a redraw for the last two tables.
