SL Shankui Li | K♣K♦ HJ | busted |
Looking like a double up for Li when the flop comes 8♦ 4♣ J♥ , however with the turn Q♠ and river T♦ , it's a runner runner straight for Le Ngoc to burn Li in 9th place.
Hai Ha Tran Puts Pressure On The Leader

Again action from the big stacked Le Ngoc Minh continues for 100,000 and the blinds call. When the flop comes 5♣ 9♦ 3♠ , small blind Hai Ha Tran leads out 100,000 getting big blind Shankui Li to fold while Minh makes the call.
Heavier bets are seen on the turn 8♦ with Minh betting 200,000, Tran check-raising to 500,000, Minh tanks for over a minute then calls. The river T♥ completes the board. Tran jumps back out for 1,000,000 and it's enough for Minh to believe as he folds.

Somashekhar Nahadeva Drives Into 3M

Shankui Li kicked off the action for 100,000 at cutoff that drew in the blinds. Li continued to fire at the flop 2♣ T♦ A♦ for 100,000 and only Somashekhar Nahadeva continued.
On the turn 6♥ , Li fires again for 270,000 but this time it’s met with a raise of 650,000. Li calls to take them to 5th street where 2♥ lands. Nahadeva leads out 175,000 and after all that heavy betting, Li opts to fold.
