Gonzaga and McAllister Score Knockouts; Bubble Immediate

Level 15 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

On the tail end of a heads-up pot to the 3?2?2?2?K? river, Po Hsiun Liao check-called a bet of 50,000 by Terry Gonzaga and sighed visibly when he was shown the A?K?.

Right after that, Gonzaga raised to 12,000 and called the preflop shove by Dae Woong Kim.

Dae Woong Kim: K?K?
Terry Gonzaga: A?10?

The ace appeared on the turn of a 8?7?5?A?6? board and Kim narrowly missed out on the money.

One table over, Eng Soon Ewe ultimately fell victim to his former nemesis Ryan McAllister when he took a big flip.

Eng Soon Ewe: Q?Q?
Ryan McAllister: A?K?

The "lucky ladies" didn't hold up for the Malaysian when McAllister improved right away on the K?5?4? flop. Two blanks followed with the 2? turn and 6? river as the field was suddenly down to just 41 contenders and on the money bubble.
