Kornprut Sriminingmongkolkul opened from the button and Justin Tsui three-bet from the big-blind. The flop came down J♣ T♣ 4♦ and Tsui did not hesitate long and jammed all-in for a bit over pot size, equalling 24,000. The Thai player thought about it for a few seconds before making the call.

Justin Tsui: Q♥ Q♣

Kornprut Sriminingmongkolkul: 9♦ 8♦

The Australian Tsui was in a great spot to double-up early on on Day 2, but after the 6♣ turn came the 7♦ river which gave the Thai player a straight, busting Tsui. The Aussie has re-entered the tournament already.

Vladimir Litasov opened the hi-jack with a 2,500 bet which was re-raised by Justin Tsui in small blind for 10,500. Litasov called to a see a flop of 6♠ T♠ 5♣ .

Tsui led out with 8,000 to be called by Litasov. Tsui checked the turn 6♦ allowing Litasov to fire 10,000 whichi Tsui called to keep the action alive.

Another check came from Tsui on the rivered 9♦ , with one of the bigger stacks in the field, Litasov shoved all-in. With only about 54,000 behind and in the last level of the day, Tsui took his time to consider his option. After much thought, Tsui put in his chips for a call slowly as if unsure of his decision.

Justin Tsui: A♥ T♥

Vladimir Litasov: A♠ 2♠

With Tsui hitting the board and the board pairing Tsui got himself a two-pair while Litasov missed his flush draw. Litasov had to make a comment, however and said, "What were you thinking about? Snap-call!"

Maxim Sorokin limped in from the small blind and Justin Tsui checked from the big blind to take it into the streets.

On the flop of 6♣ K♣ K♦ , Sorokin bet 1,200 and Tsui called to see the 8♣ fall on the turn, where Sorokin bet 2,500 and Tsui stuck around again.

The river brought the 5♠ . Sorokin kept to his strategy and fired out a bet of 7,500 this time. This didn’t deter Tsui from making the call. Sorokin tabled 7♥ 5♣ for rivered two pair, but it was still not enough to win the hand as his opponent also flipped rivered two pair with Q♣ 5♥ , which shipped the pot Tsui's way.

Slaven Popov, in the hijack, opened for 2,200 and was called by Justin Tsui in the big blind, setting up a flop.

The flop came down J♥ 6♣ 9♥ . After Tsui checked, Popov continued with a 2,500 bet, which Tsui called.

The turn brought the 9♣ , and this time Tsui led out with a 4,800 bet, which Popov called.

On the river, the 3♦ fell, and Tsui made a sizable bet of 19,000 into the pot. Popov took some time to consider his options but ultimately decided to fold, allowing Tsui to scoop the pot.

The action was picked up on the turn with a board running out 8♠ J♠ T♥ 9♥ and around 14,500 chips in the middle when Justin Tsui checked the action from the cutoff to Pham Nghia on the button, who bet 11,000. Tsui made the call.

The 3♠ came on the river, where the action went check-check. Tsui tabled a flush with A♠ T♠ to rival a straight from Nghia’s Q♦ J♦ .
