Hon Ip Out In 16th Taking Home NTD 70,600 (~$2,175)

Chip leader Kristof Segers starts us off with a 60,000 raise from +1 holding A A , LJ calls and SB Hon Ip puts 300,000 over the line. With another player behind, Segers elects to slow play and calls which takes us heads up to the flop J 8 8 . Hon Ip continues for 150,000 and another call treats us with the turn 9 . Hon Ip puts his remaining 550,000 in the middle with K K , but has to watch Kristof Segers snap call and flip over rockets for a massive cooler. The river Q doesn't change anything and Kristof Segers extends his lead by a mile.

Lok Chan Outdrawn And Busted

Level 17: 6,000 / 12,000 ante: 12,000
Lok Chan

With a 24,000 open from the HJ we see CO and BB tag along for the flop 4 2 9 . Checked to CO Tang Ngong a 22,000 feeler goes into the middle and BB Lok Chan is the only one paying up to see the turn 6 . With the action checked to Tang Ngong again he puts his opponent all in with J T trying to win it right now, but Lok Chan has other ideas and finds a call with the use of a time bank for his last 266,000 with 5 6 being in decent shape for a double up. The dealer turns it upside down with the river K and sends him packing, granting Tang Ngong a massive pot that almost puts him even with the chip leader.
