Pan Yao Ends Closes Flight D Atop The 26 Survivors

Level 20: 5,000 / 10,000 ante: 10,000

Pan Yao

That's a wrap for the Okada Millions Flight D with 222 entries whittled down to just 26 players securing their spot in the Day 2 lineup. The heat concluded at the fall of Alekhine Isidro to Joungwoo Park who went on to bag up the second largest stack of the flight of 392,000 in chips.

Ahead of him by one spot was China's Pan Yao with a 472,000 in chips. Yao gained momentum during the late rounds delivering busts to Naoki Kato and Jun Beum Chun.

The survivors have a day's rest before returning on Sunday, April 13 for the final race to glory. They are each guaranteed a piece of the prize pool which is currently at PHP 5.89 Million. That pot will rise further with three more flights yet to be tabled.

So far, the flagship tournament has drawn cumulative 858 entries with 102 players advancing to the money round which includes one double qualifier. Still leading the Day 2 lineup is Flight A leader Christian Lortie Cloutier with 700,000 in chips.

Flight A: 202 entries / 24 ITM

Flight B: 171 entries / 21 ITM

Flight C: 263 entries / 31 ITM

Flight D: 222 entries / 26 ITM

Pan Yao Pads Up A Bit More

Level 19: 4,000 / 8,000 ante: 8,000

With no action before him, button player Pan Yao raises 16,000. Big blind Jun Beum Chun thinks it's time to risk his last 35,000 which is cheap enough for the big stacked Yao who calls.

Upon revealing, Chun is ahead with Q♥ 6♥ against Yao's T♣ 9♠ and improves further on the flop Q♠ 8♠ 2♠ . However with the turn 6♠ , Yao takes the lead with the flush. And with the river 4♥ , Chun doesn't find the boat to get the boot.

Pan Yao Outdraws Naoki Kato

Level 18: 3,000 / 6,000 ante: 6,000

Naoki Kato jams his last 92,000 (15 bb) and is denied the steal when big blind Pan Yao defends. Kato is ahead with the act but Yao connects with the board to spoil his plans of a double up.
