Main Event (1,300,000 KRW)

The fourth of five flights for the KPC Main Event with the KRW 800,000,000 (~$544,077) guaranteed prize pool well eclipsed by the new total of KRW 1,393,660,000 (~$977,109) booked 390 entries and saw 49 advance to Day 2 tomorrow at 12:00 local.

Chun Lung Wong bagged a new overall lead with 795,000 mainly due to a massive double up against Tae Hoon Han with A♠ A♥ against J♥ J♦ that remained the biggest pot of the day - worth 233 BBs in level 13. He put a cherry on top right at the end by eliminating Cheng Zhou on the bubble for Day 2.

Yuheng Wu came in 2nd with 563,000 and 3rd place Haibo Yang has 544,000 to work with.

We will now switch to live updates for Flight E that is already close to the bubble.

No help for Zhou on J♥ 3♣ 7♣ K♣ T♠ concludes Flight D with 49 players waiting to bag their chips for Day 2.

No heart on 5♣ and 7♣ sends Liu to the rail.

Things are looking peachy for Nakajima when the dealer flips over T♣ 4♦ J♥ 3♠ before going pear shaped on the river Q♣ that puts Chu in front with a straight.

The turn Q♥ and river 4♣ seal Guo's fate, just missing out on the KRW 2,000,000 (~$1,375) min cash.

Instant relieve for Kuo on A♠ A♣ J♥ 6♣ 8♥ and the bubble stays intact.

We are still on the money bubble with hand for hand play and 60 players trying to get to the 59 min cash places. The last 49 will bag their chips until Day 2.

Hoi's odds keep getting better on 6♥ 5♠ A♥ K♠ before falling to zero on the river 9♥ .

Under the gun Haibo Yang opens 10,000 and takes two customers to the flop 9♥ 9♠ 4♦ where his 15,000 c-bet takes him heads up with small blind Cheng Zhou.

Tae Hoon Han kicks off the action with a 6,000 open from the cutoff and calls after big blind Chun Lung Wong pumped it to 30,000 to see the flop 4♦ T♦ 7♣ . Wong starts a triple barrel sequence of 35,000, 90,000 and 192,000 all-in that gets called by Han to complete the board 5♠ and K♣ where he goes in the tank, but ends up calling with J♥ J♦ , surrendering the pot to Wong's A♠ A♥ .

Picking up the action on 6♣ 7♣ 4♥ 5♠ and 36,500 up for grabs, Yuchao Pan leads 12,000 from +1 and pays up after Yuzhu Wang made it 30,000 from +2. The river 5♦ gets checked by Pan who snap calls Wang's 49,500 all-in, showing J♥ J♠ against Wang's A♥ 7♦ .

With the board showing J♣ 5♠ A♠ 9♦ and 34,000 in the middle, small blind Yi Ma - 3rd at the Poker Dream 16 Main Event for $111,094 here at the Landing Casino just a few weeks ago - leads 22,000 and big blind Shiina Okamoto calls. The board completes A♣ , Ma checks-calls an 8,000 bet and mucks after Okamoto showed A♦ 7♦ .

Catching the action with 9♦ 7♦ 3♦ K♣ on the board and 55,000 up for grabs, big blind Chun Lung Wong bets 43,300 and hijack Lei Li goes in the tank before making the call that completes the board 4♥ . Wong Puts Li all-in, who snap calls 40,000 with K♦ J♥ and splashes his chips in the middle after Wong flipped over 7♥ 7♠ to become the new chip leader.

Linghui Dai initiates the action with a raise to 5,000 from +2, Xiaolu Yang ups it to 13,000 out of the cutoff and Renji Mao - fresh from his biggest cash of $737,000 for finishing 3rd at the Triton Event #8 here at the Landing Casino just over a month ago - puts his massive stack in the middle and finds no takers.

With the board showing 2♦ K♣ 7♦ K♥ and 4,000 in the middle, small blind Jianming Luo leads 8,000, big blind Ziyue Zheng calls and the board completes T♦ where Luo declares all-in for 30,000 to scoop the pot.

Picking up the action on A♥ 5♣ 2♦ 5♦ and 28,000 up for grabs, Christian Harder leads 35,000 - leaving himself 2,000 - which sends Nan Zhang deep in the tank. After a three minute contemplation he finally emerged with a call, but mucks after Harder shows A♦ Q♥ .

No help for Ng on J♥ K♠ has Zhao scoop one of the biggest pots so far.

Cutoff Yikang Xu looks at K♥ T♠ , raises to 4,000 and takes two players to the flop A♦ 7♠ 4♥ where his 8,000 c-bet takes him heads up with big blind Man Cheng Hoi. The turn 3♠ gets checked around to the river 8♠ where Xu bluff-jams, but Hoi's top pair with the nut-blocker A♠ T♥ is good enough to put his last 30,000 on the line.

Mahiro Shirono raises to 3,000 from the hijack and calls after button Bill Chan upped it to 9,000 to see the flop 7♦ 3♠ 2♠ . Chan c-bets 6,000 and shoves 42,500 after Shirono countered with a 16,000 check-raise. Shirono gives it some thought before laying his hand down.

Having further grown her stack away from our attention - Shiina Okamoto kicks off the action with a raise to 2,500 from +1 and calls after big blind Yang Teng Tan upped it to 7,000 to lay eyes on the flop 4♥ 2♠ 7♣ . Tan continues for 7,000, Okamoto raises to 16,000 before Tan jams around 60,000. Okamoto folds and shows T♥ T♣ .

The river Q♠ rewards Dai's very loose call, sending Lu to the rail.

Under the gun Xinxing Tang opens 2,500, cutoff Masatoshi Tanaka ups it to 7,400, but folds after Tang announced all-in for 32,400.

Pu's set holds on 2♠ and 8♣ , making him the new chip leader.

The turn 3♣ and river 7♠ leave everything as is, granting Wei the double up and leaving Wada with crumbs.
