It took a full orbit before the bubble burst. During that time, there were a few uncalled shoves then two all ins called just before the break at separate tables.
At one table Tzu Ting Su was all in with pocket queens, called by David Erquiaga with pocket eights. The ladies held, even finding one on the board for a double up.
While Tzu Ting Su was fortunate, at Table 5, American player Sachaswan was forced all in on the big blind with his 4500 stack. Three players were in with no bets fired throughout the board 6♦ 5♦ 8♦ 2♠ 6♣. Kasawaki won it with 6♠ 10♦ trips. Sachaswan bubbled.
Kenta Hino shipped two pots to bring him up to a healthy 430k. First hand was a double up through Cao Ngoc Anh with pocket kings turning a straight over queen jack two pair on a board J-10-9-Q-5. All the chips went in at the flop.
Hino followed it up with the elimination of Jeong Bong Kil. Jeong opened from utg for 10k, sb Hino called and joined by the big blind. At the flop 9♦ 10♦ 7♣, Hino jammed, Jeong tank-called. Hino 9♥ 6♠, Jeong A♦ 2♦ draw. The turn was 6♣ and river J♣.
