Strong Finish of Day 1 for The Naing

Level 16: 10,000 / 25,000 ante: 25,000

The Naing

The Naing from Singapore opened from the cut-off and got one caller in person of the button Van Dong. On Q♣ 5♦ 4♣ Naing checked and Dong bet out 50,000. Naing called and the turn was the Q♠ . Naing checked and Dong bet once more, this time for 100,000. Naing called again and the river brought the T♥ . Again Naing checked his action to Dong who put out a strong bet of 500,000. Naing only had to check his cards to make sure and then made the call.

Van Dong: K♥ J♦

The Naing: Q♦ 6♦

Shortly after The Naing busted Dylan Foster in an all-in preflop situation with A♣ Q♣ against the Aussie's A♠ 8♣ . Great finish for The Naing who put himself in a great starting position for tomorrow's day 2.

A Four is Enough for Dong

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

On the 4♣ Q♥ T♦ flop, there were around 30,000 chips in the middle when Van Dong checked it over from the big blind before Justin Tsui bet 17,000 on the button. Dong dropped in a call.

Both read a Q♠ turn and checked through to see the 7♦ fall on the river, where the two decided to check to a free showdown.

Dong tabled 8♠ 4♠ for a flopped pair of fours, and it was enough to make Tsui toss his cards back into the muck.
