Kevin HaslerKevin Hasler from Switzerland is having an exciting day on the felt. We saw him earlier today folding a straight on the turn, after a couple more losing hands, he was down to just crumbles but managed to climb back up again. First, he got runner runner with Q♠ 9♦ against Wahlquist's A♣ 3♠ on A♥ T♠ 2♥ 9♥ 9♠ , then he won with 4♣ 4♦ against Hendra Choandri's J♣ J♦ on T♠ 9♠ 4♥ 3♠ T♣ and directly after busting Hyeontae Sim with K♥ J♥ against Sim's T♠ T♣ . So far it has been a remarkable comeback for the Swiss player. Let's see if he can continue to run up his stack.

Patrick Wahlquist raised to 1,500 and was called by Tsz Kan Ip on the button and Enrico Mosca on the big blind. The three players were given a flop of 2♣ 8♣ 3♣ . Wahlquist made a continuation-bet of 2,000 with only IP staying on to see a A♠ turn. Wahlquist fired 5,500 and Ip tanked a bit before making the call to open a 5♦ on the river. Both players checked and flipped over their cards. Ip showed A♥ K♣. for a pair of aces while Wahlquist showed A♦ 3♠ for the winning two-pair.
