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
