Red Dragon Championship (2,500,000 KRW)

The dealer keeps it interesting till the end on T♦ Q♣ 7♥ 6♣ 5♣ but lets Li prevail to recover some of her losses.

Jia Chi Li raises 50,000 from +1 and pays up after small blind Shengfa Huang upped it to 240,000 to see the flop Q♠ T♥ 5♥ where she lays out 170,000 when the action checked to her. Huang calls and the turn K♦ gets checked to the river 5♠ with Huang back in control, making it 300,000 with A♦ K♠ . Li calls before throwing it in the muck.

Qing Zhao keeps his lead, picking up small pots left and right using his massive stack to bully. Current payout is at KRW 6,250,000 (~$4,350) with a $455 pay jump from 62nd onwards.

Drawing dead already, Ruan gets up before the river 8♦ makes his exit official.

Right the next hand we see under the gun Yiming Kuang put his last 15,000 in the middle and Jia Chi Li tries to isolate with a raise to 35,000 from the hijack, but instead finds three more customers to share the flop 7♥ 5♠ K♥ with. Everyone checks to reveal the turn 8♠ where big blind Dapeng Wang moves all-in for 115,000 with Li and small blind Ping Chen taking the offer. Li jams on the river J♣, forcing the only remaining player with some chips behind out of the hand to deliver a double knockout with top two K♣ J♥ against Kuang's A♥ J♠ and Wang's Q♦ 6♦ which takes her close to the leader.

With 156 players left we are six eliminations away from the KRW 5,150,000 (~$3,585) money bubble.
