Several hands go by with players raising and finding no takers until Jun Javalera changed the mood and three-bet SJ Kim’s 65k to 125k. Kim called and off to the flop of K♣ 10♣ 4♠. Both players checked, same thing on the turn of 3♠, then on the river of 9♠, Kim bet 135k and Javalera folded. Kim’s stack continues to rise.
As the shortest stack in the final six, SJ Kim raised to 65k and big blind player Weiyi Zhang called. At the flop of 4♦ 9♦ 10♥, Zhang checked to the raiser Kim who bet 70k and was called. At the turn of K♠, Zhang checked again and Kim bet again, this time it was 125k. Zhang flat-called. On the river of K♥, Zhang proceeded to mimic his previous actions by checking then calling Kim’s shove of his remaining 385k. Zhang mucked when Kim revealed his Q♣ Q♠. Kim zooms to 1.3m.
Weiyi Zhang hasn’t won a pot yet in this level but finally claimed one minutes ago. Zhang raised to 60k and found two callers to join him to see the flop. Dealer revealed K♥ 9♦ 7♣, Le Ngoc Khanh checked, Zhang bet 125k, Jun Javalera folded, and contributing to the pot with a call was Le. The turn card of 6♥ saw Le check again, Zhang bet 225k, and with that, he claimed the pot with Le’s fold.
Yah Loon began the action with a 60k raise but Le Ngoc Khanh wanted a meatier pot and three-bet to 180k. Action folded back to Loon who opted to fold.
On an unraised pot, three players saw a flop of 10♠ 8♠ 2♣. Weiyi Zhang and Yao Hui checked to Jun Javalera who bet 70k and was called by Hui. At the turn of 9♥, both checked to see a free river card of A♦. Hui checked again and Javalera bet 100k enough to win the pot.
Soon after Jun Javalera forfeited a pot to Yah Loon’s shove, he was back to challenge his table mates for another. Limping in, Le Ngoc Khanh followed suit on the small blind and big blind player Weiyi Zhang checked. At the flop of 7♥ 6♥ 9♥, both blinds checked to Javalera who gunned for the pot with a bet of 100k. Getting a call only from Le, fourth street saw an 8♣ grace the board. Le checked, Javalera shoved, and claimed the pot with Le folding.
Jun Javalera began the action with a 150k raise only to get challenged by Yah Loon with a shove totaling 845k. Much too much for Javalera, Loon took it down while showing a 3♥.
Button player SJ Kim watched the action fold around the table and decided to change it up by laying out a 65k raise. Acting next was Yah Loon who matched it up. The board ran 7♦ 4♣ A♣, Loon checked to Kim who continued with a 70k bet and won the hand with a fold from Loon.
Jun Javalera claims another pot to add to his growing arsenal. During the hand, Weiyi Zhang raised to 60k and on the big blind, Javalera called. The flop landed 10♦ 3♦ 6♠ and Javalera took initiative by laying out a 150k bet. Zhang gave up his hand.
