Day 1
River Deuce Isn't for Tsai
Toan Truong raised to 32,000 from under the gun and Ting Yi Tsai called from the big blind.
On the 4♣ 8♦ 2♥ flop, Tsai checked to Truong, who then made a continuation bet of 55,000, prompting Tsai to shove all in for around 90,000.
Ting Yi Tsai: 8♣ 4♥
Toan Truong: A♦ A♠
Tsai picked up two pair against the bullets from Truong. However, soon the dealer delivered an unfortunate runout of 7♦ 2♦ , improving Truong to higher two pair and showing Tsai the way out.
