It’s been quite a heated battle out there with Tae Hoon Han and chip leader Hideki Izutsu both in the hand.
The first pot saw Izutsu raise to 32k, called by Han on the button. At the flop 2♠ 4♣ 3♥, Izutsu check-called Han’s 40k bet. On the 3♣ turn, another check-call by Izutsu of 100k. On the river 5♣, Izutsu led for 300k and Han quickly folded. Han down to 425k, Izutsu up to around 1.8m.
Next hand, Izutsu raised to 32k, called by Han and Hung Sheng Lin. On the flop 9♥ 6♠ 2♣, Izutsu checked, Han bet 45k, Hung called, and back to Izutsu who also called. On the 4♠ turn, action was the same with Han sending out 120k, called by both Hung and Izutsu. On the 5♦ river, no bets came, Izutsu had J♥ 9♣ top pair, and Han shipped it with Q♥ Q♠ when Hung mucked.
Han up to 860k, Izutsu down to 1.6m.
