Set for Sontheimer

Level 18 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Peter Jetten raised to 100,000 with {A-Spades}{10-Hearts} and Rui Cao came along from the small blind with {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}, Wai Leong Chan filled up from the big blind with {3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. The {A-Hearts}{9-Spades}{6-Clubs} flop, the blinds checked to Jetten and his bet of 100,000 was called by Cao only.

The {10-Diamonds} turn gave Jetten top two pair and Cao checked to him, prompting the Canadian to bet 300,000 and force a quick fold.

Mikita Badziakouski opened to 110,000 with the {5-Spades}{5-Clubs} and Steffen Sontheimer called with {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} in the hijack, Jetten defended in the big blind with {A-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}. Jetten took the lead on the {K-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop, however, all three players checked. There was no action on the {9-Hearts} turn either, and the {7-Diamonds} river gave Sontheimer a set.

Jetten and Badziakouski checked, and the start-of-the-day chip leader made it 285,000 to go. Jetten folded and so did Badziakouski.

Level: 18

Blinds: 25,000/50,000

Ante: 5,000

Dietrich Fast Eliminated in 9th Place (HKD1,956,000/$249,165)

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Dietrich Fast
Dietrich Fast

Manig Loeser opened to 85,000 with the {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} in the hijjack and Dietrich Fast in the small blind moved all in for 230,000 with {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}. Rui Cao clicked it back to 390,000 from the big blind with {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} and Loeser went all in over the top for 1,550,000. Cao let go after using a time bank extension and Fast was in need or a miracle in the showdown against the defending champion.

On the {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{5-Diamonds} flop, Fast picked up a gutshot, but the {7-Clubs} turn and {2-Hearts} river were both blanks to eliminate Fast in 9th place for HKD1,956,000 ($249,165).
