Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Reza Vakili
Reza Vakili

Peng Xie opened to 3,000 from under the gun, and Reza Vakili promptly three-bet to 13,000 in the hijack. Idris Hassan then moved all in on the button, and Steven Vucsic shoved in the big blind.

Xie let his hand go, while Vakili called covering both opponents.

Idris Hassan: A♥K♣ All in
Steven Vucsic: 3♦3♥ All in
Reza Vakili: A♦9♦

The dealer fanned out the 6♣5♥7♥ flop, leaving Vucsic in front. Vakili then hit the 9♥ turn, while Hassan picked up a flush draw. The 10♠ river was a blank, leaving Vakili with the best hand to send Hassan and Vucsic to the rail.

Xiaobo Yu opened to 4,000 in early position, with Wei Han calling as next to act. Rob Wang moved all in from the big blind for 20,500, and was at risk when Yu shoved his covering stack. Han got out of the way, and the cards were turned up.

Rob Wang: A♠Q♣ All in
Xiaobo Yu: A♣J♣

Wang was in great shape as the hands were revealed, and his queen kicker played on the 6♦7♥5♥6♠9♥ runout to double through Yu.

Action was three-way to the 6♠2♦2♣7♣ turn, where Vikram Gupta checked from the big blind. William Lim also tapped the table in middle position before Siyu Du bet 3,600 in the cutoff.

Du thought it over for a moment before sending her cards to the dealer, and Gupta raked in the pot.

River Bet from Andreadis

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Chris Andreadis raised to 2,500 in middle position, and Adit Kumar made the call in the cutoff. Hm Kim came along in the small blind, and the dealer fanned out the 8♠2♠K♥ flop.

All three players declined to bet, and the K♠ turn produced a lead of 3,000 from Kim. Only Andreadis called to see the 5♥ river, where Kim checked. Andreadis bet 6,000, good enough to claim the pot as Kim sent his cards into the muck.

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Haibo Chu opened to 2,000 in middle position, and Leo Boxell called in the hijack. Wadih Barbara also came along in the cutoff before Jonathan Tan three-bet to 8,000 on the button.

Chu used a time bank card and tossed out a four-bet to 24,000, producing folds from Boxell and Barbara.

Tan took some time before opting to let his hand go, and the four-bet from Chu was enough to claim the chips with no further action.
