Players had already gotten up for the break but action was still taking place at table 19. Alan King Lun Lau raised to 16k, Phachara Wongwichit shoved his massive 349k stack. Lau called. Wongwichit with A♦ K♣, Lau with K♥ K♠, the board ran blanks 2♥ 3♦ 3♥ 9♦ J♦ and with that, Wongwichit bubbled! Lau now over 700k.
Lee Kun Han held on to his very very short stack. He had 21k left and was on the big blind. Paying the bb ante 8k and 8k for the bb, action around the felt saw Lim Yohwan raise to 31k, Lee tossed in his last 5k chip. Lee A♦ 2♦, Yohwan J♦ 5♠, the board ran A♥ K♠ K♦ 10♥ 4♦ for a double up.
That wasn’t the end of it. Next hand Lee was on the small blind and Yohwan once again raised. This time to 17k, Chen Hao called, the Lee jammed. Only Yohwan called. Lee A♦ K♣, Yohwan 10♦ 9♠, the board ran A♣ K♠ 9♥ J♣ 7♣ to doulble up a second time. He now has around 140k.
Yi Wei Peng was seen tanking again. Earlier it was to James Jagger, this time it was Jacky Wong put him in the heater. The board was 5♦ 6♦ 2♦ K♦, 70k in the middle, Peng check-called Wong’s 35k bet. On the 2♠ river, Wong bet 100k which puts Peng all in less one chip. Peng tanked then folded.
We are still on the bubble round.
Sparrow Cheung moved all in with his remaining 46k short stack and was called by Hang Fang Hao with K♦ 6♦. The board ran A♦ 5♣ 6♥ A♠ Q♦ for a double up.
Yuki Miyakura had K♥ K♣, his short stacked opponent had A♦ Q♥, the board threw blanks and Miyakura shipped it.
We are down to the final 54 players. It’s bubble time!
Ying Xin shoved her short stack holding A♥ A♦, got called by A♠ K♥, no bad beats on the board for a double up.
