After just praising Le Hung, he might have blundered some chips away shortly after. We picked up the action on the turn where Hung bet 8,000 into a pot of around 17,000. The board read T♠ 5♠ 6♦ J♦ . Sitting in position Bui Duc Manh raised it to 16,500. Hung called and quickly moved all-in on the 8♦ river for Duc's effective 10,300. Manh Duc called equally quickly.
Bui Duc Manh: T♦ T♥
Le Hung: A♣ Q♣

Tin Hoang started the action with a limp from middle-position. Manh Duc on the button made it 500, and Ruihan Cheng and Hoang called. On 8♠ 4♣ 2♣ the preflop limper Hoang led out for 600. Duc raised it to 1500, and Cheng and Hoang called.
The turn brought the 6♦ . Cheng checked and Hoang continued his betting with a 10,000 chips bet. The button got out of the way, but the big-blind Cheng moved all-in for 35,300. After a few seconds of deliberation time, Hoang decided to call, barely covering Cheng.
Ruihan Cheng: 5♣ 3♣
Tin Hoang: 4♥ 2♥
The river bricked out and Cheng won the first big pot of the day with his straight.
