Jojo Tech opened for 18,000 and got a call from Jia Jie Liang from the small blind.
Both players checked the flop A♦ J♥ Q♠ while Liang bet 15,000 on the turn 10♦ to which Tech called.
On the river A♣, the Filipino led out for 45,000 forcing the fold from the Chinese.
Two ladies left in the field– Ms. Annie Bordallo and Jin Young Choi. They went at it in a recent hand with Choi opening for 18,000 preflop and Bordallo calling.
Flop: 7♠ 9♣ K♥
Choi led out again with 16,000 but saw some opposition from Bordallo who added 21,000 more.
Choi wanted that move probably as he moved all in for his final 60,000.
Bordallo gave up her hand.
Despite having one of the average stacks Ziyang Zhao is still bullying opponents with way larger stacks than him.
In one hand, the Chinese opened for 16,000 and got raised by Jia Jie Liang, his compatriot.
Zhao called to bring the flop 9♣ 5♠ 4♠ to which Liang checked.
Zhao continued his story and bet 40,000. A smirk later, Liang folded.
Zhao duly noted and showed him 2♣ 6♣ for air.
Vincent Torres happily doubled up in a recent hand against Feng Zhao. It started with Torres and Bryan Huang calling Zhao’s preflop raise to 13000. At the flop of 5♠ 4♠ Q♥, action checked to Torres who bet 22000 and was called only by Zhao. At the turn of 3♥, Torres again bet, this time fro 30000 and was raised all in Zhao. Torres accepted and showed his A♣ Q♦ for top pair against Zhao’s A♠ K♣. With the river of Q♣, Torres exuberantly doubled up.
In a preflop all in moment, Andre Bouchard couldn’t catch a higher pair with his A-8 against SJ Kim’s P10s and was eliminated in 21st place. He took home $5500 for his efforts.
Jin Young Choi grabbed herself more chips in a recent hand when she raised to 15000 preflop and got two callers, Jerry Lai and Jaeib Cho. At the flop of A♥ A♣ 9♥, Cho and Choi checked to Lai who sent ouf 22000 pushing out Cho but not Choi who check-raised all in. Though not much more to call, Lai opted to fold giving Choi a good pot. She kindly showed her A♦ for trips.
Yoichi Fujiya won the blinds and antes in his first two shoves but in his third, he wasnt so lucky with Michael Marvanek making the call. Fujiya had A♣ 9♣ and Marvanek had K♠ K♦. The cowboys held up and Fujiya bowed out in 22nd place earning himself $5500.
Aussie Michael Marvanek just busted out two players.
Holding K♥ Q♥ he was all-in against two short-stacked players in Tetsuya Tsuchikawa (Japan) and Peter Kleuden (Germany) who had ace-three and ace-queen.
Marvanek hit the king on the board 8♣ 2♦ 8♦ K♣ 4♥ and we are quickly down to 22 players.
Peter would tell us later that he got crippled in an earlier hand when his king-queen lost to an opponent who called his all-in with 9-10.
Tsuchikawa and Kleudgen both get $5,500 for their efforts in the main event.
Japanese Jeik Cho shoved his final 58,000 to the middle and got an quick call from Jia Jie Liang of China.
Cho: 6♣ 6♠
Liang: 10♦ 10♠
Liang was way ahead and the flop Q♠ J♠ 9♦ assured it stays that way while the turn 10♣ officially eliminated Cho, who’s out at 25th place for $5,500.
