Main Event (1,300,000 KRW)

Chen's odds keep increasing on 8♠ 5♣ 4♠ 4♣ before going to zero when today's golden boy Jieming Xu hits the 9♣ to break the 1 Million mark and lets everyone get some well deserved rest at 3:30 in the morning.

The J♥ and 2♣ doesn't help the underdog at risk, extending Xu's lead even further and we are now at the Day 2 bubble.

Liu hits two pair, but falls further behind on the flop Q♣ A♣ 9♥ and the turn Q♦ is the nail in his tournament coffin for an insignificant 2♦ river that no one cares about.

Things are looking peachy for Wang when the 4♥ hits, but turn pear shaped on the 2♣ river, giving Xu a pair and granting the remaining players at least the KRW 2,000,000 (~$5,802) min cash.

An ace in the window on 6♣ 4♦ A♦ 9♠ 4♠ makes Wang breathe a little easier, but with the chip leader on his table it could still be over at any minute.

A mere 22 out of a total 107 entries remain trying to make the 17 ITM places and advance to Day 2 as one of the last 14 standing.

Jieming Xu who already warmed up in Flight B earlier has a commanding lead over the rest of the field with 572,000, more than double of what Itsang Tu and Xiong Chen have with 268,000 in a shared 2nd place.
