Flight A
Benor Finally KOs Liu Yu Chi
Liu Yu Chi moved all-in from UTG for his remaining 3,600 and got called by Daniel Benor at the button for a show-down.
Liu Yu Chi: T♥ 8♥
Daniel Benor: 5♦ 5♣
Chi flopped a straight when the dealer peeled 6♦ 7♦ 9♦ but Benor had outs, even a possible straight flush. The 8♥ on the turn gave Benor a small straight, but Chi was still ahead, and then the river T♠ gave them a split pot with Chi shaking his head and Benor joking, "My straight is longer! 5 to 10."
In the following hand, Chi pushed all-in again for 4,000 and was called Ka Yue Colin Tsang and Daniel Benor for a three-way entering a flop of T♠ J♣ 3♠ Both checked to see a 2♦ turn. Tsang check-folded when Benor made a 3,600 bet, leaving Chi and Benor to the final duel.
Benor showed J♥ Q♦ for a top-pair to keep ahead of Chi's A♥ 5♦ . Chi had seven outs, but the 6♥ on the river wasn't one of them. Benor takes down the pot and Chi is sent to the rail.
