Main Event (2,400,000 ₩)

Down to 3 bb, Webster Lim risks it with A♦ 9♥ and big blind Wei Lu calls with Q♥ J♠ . Lu improves on the flop J♣ 6♠ 4♣ , Lim retakes the lead on the turn A♣ , then with the river J♦ , Lu jumps back out front again to boot Lim out of the field.

Catching the action with a pot of 90,000 already brewed and a flop 9♠ J♠ 8♣ . Deng Hui has all of his chips in, a huge 268,000 stack with 8♥ 9♦ and Lim has him covered and has Q♦ T♣ nuts straight. The turn 3♦ and river 7♦ don't improve Hui to crash out of the tournament as Lim ships it.

Hand folds around to the small blind Ng Wai Loon, he limps then calls big blind Webster Lim's 21,000 raise. On the flop A♥ 7♣ 6♣ , Loon checks to Lim who bets another 21,000, this time Ng answers with a raise to 36,000, Lim gives it up.

It didn't take long for the bubble to burst with two players going bust at separate tables. At one table, it was all in preflop. Bao Shuang was eliminated by Webster Lim with A♣ 9♥ over J♣ T♠ on a board A♦ 6♠ Q♠ Q♦ 8♦ . Over at the other felt, Wang Hui's A♠ J♦ missed the board against Wang Yaijang's 9♣ 9♠ .

Since both players were at separate tables, they will split the minimum payout.

Three aggressive players face a board 7♥ T♦ 9♥ 9♣ with 2200 in the middle, Webster Lim takes the reins for 1200, Wang Yongbin calls, Chen Zhen raises 5000, Lim calls, Wang drops out. The river T♥ , Lim sends out 15,000 which is enough to win the pot uncontested.
