Yifu He
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.

posted by Christian Zetzsche
Quang Dinh Do raised to 9,000 and then called a three-bet to 30,000 by Shota Nakanishi on the button. Do check-called the A 8 2 flop for 20,000 and did so again on the 7 turn this time for 70,000.
Once Do checked the A river, Nakanishi checked behind and mucked when he was shown A J for trip aces by Do.

Lee Jams Into Choong
posted by Christian Zetzsche
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.

Sugita check-called a 13,000 bet from Perry on the A 9 J flop, but check-folded after a bit of thought, facing a 33,000 barrel on the Q river.
Perry is among the current chip leaders with approximately 530,000 in chips.
