Two hands is what ended Lim Min Soon’s hunt for the title. The first hand was the set over set loss to Hung Sheng Lin then returning from a break, he met his end at the hands of Yoichi Uesugi.
Action prelop saw a raise to 14k by Uesugi from the hijack seat, called by Lim on the button. At the flop 10♦ J♦ K♠, Uesugi c-bet 20.5k, Lim raised, Uesugi shoved, Lim called.
Lim K♣ Q♣
Uesugi A♦ Q♦
The turn 6♠ and river 2♠ ended the hand sending Lim out of the running.
