Daily Updates

Past the crack of dawn, Hong Kong's Heung Tsz Kin came from behind at heads up against Steve Yea to clinch the record breaking Super High Roller title and the ₩396,300,000 (~US$ 299,150) top prize! This was Heung's first major victory and career best score. It was also his third cash at the ongoing series.

Congratulations to the champion!

Finishing as runner up was Korea's Steve Yea for ₩266,840,000 (~US$ 201,425). Yea is having one of his best poker years on the live tournament felt. Just this summer, he nearly clasped a gold at the WSOP and now a near victory at the Super High Roller. This was also Yea's first ever Poker Dream cash.

Down to 8 bb Winfred Yu goes all in with 4♥ 4♣ and survives Zhang Chenxu's A♠ J♠ overcards for a double up to 16 bb.

Niklas Warlich opens, Sim Kok Wai three-bets, Warlich four-bets all in, Sim snap-calls. Warlich has A♠ K♠ and is far behind Sim's A♥ A♦ . With the board running 5♠ 3♣ 2♥ 4♣ T♥ , it's a split pot, denying Sim the win.

Tony Lin open shoves 11 bb with 7♦ 7♠ and survives the runout 9♣ 8♥ 7♣ J♣ Q♦ against caller Steve Yea's A♦ J♦ .
