Jeju Open Final

Blinds 10,000/25,000 Ante 25,000

William Jia made a min-raise from UTG+2 then called the 310,000 all-in of Zhichen Yu from the big blind. William Jia flipped over A♠ J♠ and looked in bad shape versus the A♣ Q♠ of Zhichen Yu. However, the gods dealt a flop of 6♣ A♦ J♥ to give Jia the lead, followed by a J♦ turn to give Yu just one out to tie. The T♣ river was a brick and Zhichen Yu was eliminated at 9th place with a payout of KRW 3,700,000 (~USD 2,800), enough for some top-of-the-line scuba diving equipment.
