In an earlier hand, Nam Le was holding bullets and it held against an opponent’s ladies…
He held the rockets again in this particular battle but the dynamics were very different in a hand versus Fu Chuan Yu.
Post-flop of 9♥ 6♥ 3♥ Chuan Yu shoved all of his stack in an already raised pot. Nam made the call and showed he had A♠ A♦
Turn 10♠ was safe for Le but the river 10♥ wasn’t and booted him out of Day 1A.
Chuan Yu joins the chip leaders with over 65,000.
