Main Event (1,300,000 KRW)

Under the gun Daniel Lee makes it 10,000 and takes two customers to the 2♠ 7♥ 3♥ flop that gets rejected for a free 6♣ turn. Big blind Dilijiang A leads 16,000, Lee folds and button Mengqing Lou raises to 52,000. Dilijiang A needs a time bank to find the call and the 9♠ river gets checked down, yielding no more value for Dilijiang A with 2♦ 2♥ set against a muck.

The biggest flight of the Series so far with 353 entries has 90 players remaining, all trying to get to the 53 ITM spots or even better, advance to Day 2 as one of the last 45 left standing at the end of the day.

Flight F Turbo has late reg still open, but the prize pool already sits at a whopping KRW 1,537,766,100 (~$1,120,796), making this yet another record breaking event for the Korea Poker Cup Series 2.

Under the gun Tae Hoon Han opens 5,000, button Chung Hsien Lee ups it to 15,000 and small blind Mengqing Lou cold four bets 50,000. Both opponents fold with Lee handing two time banks to the dealer before doing so.

Getting to the action on the 7♠ 8♣ K♥ 6♠ turn and 19,500 in the middle we see cutoff Hyung Soo Lim bet 10,000 and Mengqing Lou check-calls for the 5♠ river to hit the felt. Lou takes over the reins with a 53,000 overbet holding 9♣ 9♠ straight and Lim calls before throwing it in the muck.

The 3♥ gives Lim a straight and stays ahead on the 7♠ river to hand out a double elimination and catapult into the overall lead.
