Kai Cocklin

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

James Carroll's stack of around 55,000 was at risk as he committed the chips to the pot preflop and was put at risk by Dai Ishibashi.

James Carroll: 9♠9♦ All in
Dai Ishibashi: K♠K♣

Carroll needed some help from the runout but it was Ishibashi that improved as the Japanese player turned a set on the A♣10♣5♥K♦4♥ runout.

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Bin Weng raised the cutoff to 6,000 and Punnat Punsri shoved from the small blind. Kyungtae Min was in the big blind and committed his short stack of a few big blinds, and Weng made the call which put both at risk.

Kyungtae Min: J♠5♠ All in
Punnat Punari: A♦Q♦ All in
Bin Weng: A♣K♦

Weng was in the lead but the hand was over by the time the flop was dealt as Punsri flopped the nuts on the 7♦3♦2♦ board. Everybody ended the hand with a flush as the runout of 9♦5♦ put five diamonds on board, but Punsri held the winner which eliminated Min.

Bin Weng	370,000 60,000	60,000
Punnat Punsri	100,000 50,000	50,000

Reard Off to a Good Start

Kai Cocklin

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Alexandre Reard opened the button to 5,500 and got a call from the small blind before Cherish Andrews shoved for 33,500 out of the big blind. Reard then shoved, and the small blind folded.

Cherish Andrews: A♠4♠ All in
Alexandre Reard: 10♠10♥

Andrews added a lot of outs on the J♥3♠Q♠ flop and even more on the 2♥ turn. However, the 3♥ river was a brick which meant Andrews was sent to the rail early on Day 2.

Reard, who bought in at the start of Day 2, has already tripled his stack.
