Deepstack (KRW 100M GTD) Final

Blinds 60,000/120,000 Ante 120,000

Wang Chongyang pushed 1,515,000 all-in at the cut-off, confident with his A♦ Q♠. Jingxuan Zhu was even more confident when he made the call with A♥ K♥. The board of J♥ 4♠ 3♠ 3♣ T♥ was good evening to keep Jingxuan Zhu's big slick ahead and take out Wang Chongyang at 6th place.

Wang Chongyang takes home a payout of KRW 10,870,000 (~USD 8,200), which can pay for a VIP table at a Steve Aoki concert.

Deepstack (KRW 100M GTD) Final

Blinds 30,000/60,000 Ante 60,000

Wang Chongyang raised the minimum 120,000 from UTG+1 and Liu Tian took it up a notch to 350,000 from the button. The blinds got out of the way and action came back to Wang Chongyang, who played with his chips a little bit before turning up the volume to 1,000,000. Liu Tian went into deep thought and decided to push his chips all-in on the strength of his A♣ K♠ . Wang Chongyang made the snap call with a confident flip of A♦ A♥.

The board came 8♥ J♦ J♠ 8♠ T♠ . Liu Tian was severely stabbed on the flop and was dead by the turn.

Li Pei is the new chip leader after the break with 1,140,000 chips, and is the only millionaire so far. Of the 48 ITM players who came back to play for the Day 2 Final, only 23 still remain standing. The chip leader at the start of the day was Pham Bao, but a few big hits has reduced his stack to just around 300,000. Such is poker. The chip lead may help a player get deep in the tournament, but it doesn't necessarily guarantee a championship. There's still much poker to play, and maybe Pham Bao will bounce back.

Meanwhile, joining Li Pei at the top is Chua Chen Shen, who is second in chips with 925,000. Wang Chongyang and Nicholas Michael are tied at the third spot with 770,000.
