Notable Players Fall Before the Money

The action after the dinner break barely lasted for one hour and the field was reduced from 23 contenders to just eleven, bringing the field to the stone money bubble.

Jhon Hendri saw his hopes crushed when he three-bet jammed a short stack with the K?Q? and was called by Jhon Tanaka with the A?Q?. The board ran out 5?4?3?2?9? and that spelled the end for the Indonesian against his fellow countryman.

Jacson Feng lost a portion of his pot and jammed the button for 18 blinds next with the A?6?. "Mic" called in the big blind with the superior ace in A?Q? and held on a K?4?2?3?3? runout.

That brought the field to the final two tables on which Lirui "Ivan" Zhang defended the big blind with 5?5? and then jammed a flop of 9?9?3? right into the A?9? of Xia Feng from under the gun. There was no help on the K? turn and K? river.

Moments later, Ken Lin soared near the top of the leaderboard when he knocked out two shorter stacks. His A?9? flipped against Quan Zhou with the 7?7? and an even shorter stack, who revealed the 4?4?. The ace came on the A?6?3?2?2? board and that made it 13 players remaining.

Yoke Wei Yoon was caught bluffing when shoving the K?7?2?A?2? river with 10?6? for a missed flush draw. Ge Zhong called with the A?7? for aces and sevens to earn the knockout.

Last but not least, Xuming Qi got it in preflop with the A?5? and Yao Xiao looked him up with the superior A?Q?. The kicker played on the 10?6?4?8?A? runout and the field was left with 11 contenders at the start of level 16 with blinds of 25,000-50,000 and a big blind ante of 50,000.
