Flight C
A King is Good Enough for Dainton

Luke Dainton made it 1,400 to go from early position and received two callers: Minwoong Jeong from the cutoff and Jae Geun Lim from the small blind.
Three players checked through the flop of 4♠ J♥ 3♠ to see an A♥ fall on the turn, where Lim checked to Dainton, who sent a bet of 2,500. Jeon then put in a raise to 12,500, and only Dainton dropped in a call.
The river revealed a board-pairing A♠ and it went check-check. Dainton showed K♣ Q♣ for king-high, and this was enough to make Jeong muck the hand.

Han Starts Her Run Strong

A flop came down 3♠ 5♥ T♠ with around 4,000 chips in the middle. Minwoong Jeong checked from the small blind, and Hua Han led out for 1,100 from the hijack. Reddy Karthikr made the call from the cutoff, and Jeong stuck around as well.
The turn revealed the A♦ and Jeong checked it to Han, who fired out 3,000. Karthikr dropped in a call, but Jeong tossed her cards into the muck.
Heads-up to the T♣ river where Han sent out a third barrel of 5,000. Karthikr snap-called, and was shown A♥ 9♣ by Han for a turned pair of aces. It was good as Karthikr mucked and Han dragged in a large pot early in the beginning level of Flight C.
