Seungjun Noh: A2

Noh connected with the 25Q flop, and the 5 turn and J river didn't improve Bojang's hand, leading to his elimination from the tournament.

The All-Ins Keep Coming

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Daewoong Song
Daewoong Song

Daewoong Song was on a short stack under the gun with 250,000 chips and went all in. Action folded to Satoshi Tanaka on the button, who three-bet all in for around 1,200,000. Sean Spector was in the small blind and was the third player to push all his chips in for a call. He had around 1,100,000 chips. Kaihung Hu was the big stack at the table and thought for a while before making the call.

Daewoong Song: J3All in
Sean Spector: QQAll in
Satoshi Tanaka: 1010All in
Kaihung Hu: AK

Hu was excited to see he was in decent shape with the two overcards, while Tanaka still had high hopes for his tens.

The flop came AJ7, putting Hu in the lead and giving Song middle pair.

The turn J turning the worst hand the best hand. Hu had outs with the nut diamond draw and the other two players were drawing thin.

The river was the 8, giving Song the lock on the main pot, while Hu also took down an even bigger side pot for the elimination of Spector and Tanaka.

Four players got the chips in the middle before the flop and Christopher Tollett was at risk for 230,000, while Romain Kowalczyk had 215,000 and Kyle Shappelle called off his stack of less than 200,000 from the big blind and Norihide Tanaka was looking for the triple knockout as he had all three players covered.

Kyle Shappelle: 43 All in
Romain Kowalczyk: QQ All in
Christopher Tollett: A9 All in
Norihide Tanaka: AJ

Kowalczyk's queens held on the K5458 runout and Tanaka took down a small side pot with his ace-high, jack-kicker.

Gruny Doubles with a Set

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Jacob Gruny kicked off the action with a raise to 125,000 from under the gun, and Edward Hatzakortzian called from the big blind.

On the 105Q flop, Hatzakortzian check-raised Gruny's 125,000 bet to 250,000, prompting Gruny to go all in. Hatzakortzian called, revealing Q8 for a pair of queens, while Gruny had a set of fives with 55.

The 2 turn and 3 river didn't change the outcome, and Gruny doubled up, leaving Hatzakortzian with 15 big blinds.

Hu-ge Double-Up

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Kaihung Hu initiated the action with a raise to 110,000 from the cutoff. Dae Woong Song, seated on the button, responded with a three-bet to 310,000. Hu then went all in, and Song quickly called.

Kaihung Hu: 88All in
Dae Woong Song: AK

The flop appeared favorable for Hu with 629. Song needed an ace or king, but the 7 on the turn didn’t help him.

A brief moment of confusion arose on the river when the A appeared, giving Song a pair of aces. However, with four hearts on the board, Hu secured a flush, allowing him to double up his already substantial stack.
