Quang Dinh Do opened to 9,000 from the cutoff and Yifu He defended his big blind.

He checked to Do on the K 9 4 flop and Do continued for 10,000. He then check-raised to 25,000 and Do called.

He barreled 35,000 into the middle on the 4 turn and Do raised enough to put He all-in for his last 79,500 total. He called and a showdown was held.

Yifu He: K 9

Quang Dinh Do: A 9

He was well ahead with the higher two pair. The T river bricked out to award He the double-up.

Kyung Min Lee raised to 8,000 in the cutoff and Yita Choong called on the button. On the K 6 4 flop, Lee bet 5,000 to earn a call and then bet another 12,000 on the A turn.

Choong opted for a raise to 35,000 and Lee pushed all-in almost immediately to see his table neighbour sigh and lean back in the chair.

The shove was for 91,000 and the Aussie folded after using one time bank.
