Tomuro Pushes Song Out of Pot
Ryosuke Tomuro opened to 2,400 and was called by Sangyoon Song on the button and Junichi Kato in the big blind. The flop of 4♠ 5♣ J♦ was checked by Kato, allowing Tomura to lead out with 3,400. Song called, while Kato folded.
When the K♦ hit the turn, Tomuro went big, betting 25,000 — more than the pot. Song folded immediately, giving Tomuro the win.

Shin Takes From Kato
Junichi Kato raised from under the gun to 700 with Cheol Ho Shin re-raising to 2,200. Action folded around to Kato who made the call for both players to enter a flop of J♥ 2♥ 7♠ Kato check-called Shin's 2,500 bet then check-ed down the K♥ turn and A♣ river. Shin flipped A♠ Q♦. and was a tad apologetic for hitting the river, while Kato threw his cards to the muck.

Flight A
Aggression + Luck = Chips
Junichi Kato opened from middle-position and got a caller in person of Woojin Kim next to him before Hao-Shan Huang came in for a squeeze to 7,500 from the cut-off. The preflop action did not stop there, as William Ysmael on the button clicked it back to 15,500. The action went back to the original opener who decided to go all-in for around 33,000. It folded to Ysmael who was priced in and made the call.
Junichi Kato: Q♥ Q♠
William Ysmael: A♥ 8♥
The flop T♥ 6♠ 3♥ gave Ysmael a flush draw to go along with the over card, and after a brick 6♦ on the turn, the Filipino did indeed get there with the 9♥ on the river. Junichi Kato took is bust out with a laugh.
