Chong A♠ A♥
Carter 9♠ 9♦
The board bricked Q♣ 10♠ Q♦ 3♣ 5♣. Carter was eliminated in 12th place and earned KD 45,900.
Victor Chong
Victor Chong builds his wall. He now sits with 870k. Prior to this pot, he shaved off a couple of 100k towers from Philip Chiu to help him rise to 2nd in command to chip leader Sparrow Cheung.
On a complete board 10♦ 9♦ 8♣ K♠ 7♦, Wang Meng bet on the big blind, Chan raised to 70k, Meng three-bet to 150k, then Chan mumbled something that Meng thought was a call and turned over his cards. This surprised Chan who told the dealer he said “wow” not call. The floor was called and it was decided that Chan had yet to act since he did not put any chips in for a call nor did he fold. Chan called while seeing Meng’s 10♣ 4♣. Chan won it with 9♣ 7♣ two pair.
Cutoff player Daniel Tang raised to 25k and big blind Gabriel Carter defended his big blind. At the flop J♦ 2♦ 10♦, Carter checked, Tang c-bet 19k, Carter shoved with 112k.

Soyza A♣ A♦
Despite being ahead, the board ran K♥ 8♥ 6♥ 7♠ 10♠ for a set to Chan to burn Soyza’s aces. Soyza earned HKD 45,900 for his deep finish.
Gavin Flynn – 15th place
We missed the action that set Gavin Flynn filing out but we did catch up with him to get a few of the details. He was all in on the turn board 7-Q-3-J holding J-3 two pair but it still wasn’t good enough against Park Yu Cheung Sparrow’s 7-7 set. The river was no help to Flynn and he ended his run in 14th place. He earned HKD 45,900 for his deep finish.
