Anh Doubles Up

Level 11: 4,500 / 9,000 ante: 9,000

The action was picked up when Ngo Khoa Anh shoved all in on the cutoff for around 120,000, and James Mendoza raise-called from the hijack to put Anh at risk.

James Mendoza A♣ Q♥

Ngo Khoa Anh A♣ K♦

The dry board ran out 4♠ J♠ 4♦ 8♦ J♥ , improving nothing for both sides, which meant that Anh’s kicker king secured the pot for his double-up.

Anh Doesn't Receive Help from the Board

Level 10: 4,000 / 8,000 ante: 8,000

Nevan Chang opened the button to 20,000 only to be jammed by Ngo Khoa Anh from the big blind for around 330,000. After a while, Chang called.

Nevan Chang: A♥ T♣

Ngo Anh: 3♣ 3♦

When the flop ran out T♦ A♣ 8♠ , Chang improved to two pair and joked, “Please give me one more eight,” Soon after, the dealer delivered the runout of K♥ 4♣ to close Anh’s small hope for winning the hand.

Unfortunate Level for Toan Chan Truong

Level 7: 2,500 / 5,000 ante: 5,000

This level did not go well for Toan Truong from Vietnam. First, he doubled Khoa Anh up with K♠ Q♠ vs Anh's A♥ Q♥ on a Qx high board then shortly after following hand happened:

Vincent Huang opened from middle-position and Truong defended his big-blind. On A♦ K♣ 9♠ Huang continued with a small bet, which Truong called. Huang continued his aggression on the J♠ turn with a 25,000 bet. Truong called once again.

The river brought the inconspicuous 4♥ and Huang put full pressure on Truong by putting him all in for his remaining 68,000 chips. After some deliberation time, the Vietnamese decided to call.

Vincent Huang: 4♦ 4♠

Toan Truong: A♠ 7♦
