Sebastian Wong
Sebastian Wong

Sebastian Wong opened to 225,000 from under the gun, Bin Zhang three-bet to 625,000, Wong made the call and the flop came down {k-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{10-Hearts}.

Zhang led for 800,000, Wong quickly moved all in for 2,355,000 and Zhang just as quickly called. Zhang turned over {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs} for top pair and Wong tabled {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} for top pair with a higher kicker.

The {5-Clubs} on the turn and {9-Clubs} on the river changed nothing as Wong secured a double up, taking over the chip lead of the tournament.

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante
Lester Edoc
Lester Edoc

Lester Edoc moved all in from the small blind for 1,485,000 and Jun Zhou snap-called from the big blind. Edoc thought he was crushed as he flipped over {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}, only to see that he was racing against Zhou's {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}.

The flop came down with no help to anyone as the dealer spread out {7-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}. The turn came a {4-Diamonds} and Edoc still needed to connect to stay alive. When the river fell the {7-Spades} Edoc gathered up his things and headed to the payout desk, being eliminated by Zhou's ace high.
