Red Dragon Championship (2,500,000 KRW)

The board pairs 7♠ to put Li back in front and Weng is left with barely more than a big blind.

The dealer flips over 8♠ and T♦ to keep Luo ahead and grants him a much needed double up.

First to act Xu Wang makes it 80,000 and button Xiaoming Weng pays up to see the 6♥ 7♦ A♦ flop where he lets it go against Wang's 50,000 c-bet who scoops his third pot in this orbit.

First to act Tao Li ups the fee to 65,000 and finds two takers for the 3♥ 2♠ 8♣ flop before triple barreling 60,000, 140,000 and 400,000 all-in on the J♣ turn and 5♦ river. Only big blind Xiaoming Weng stays in the race until the river, where he needs two time banks to conclude that a fold is his best option.

Hijack Heng Wang makes it 60,000, cutoff Xiaoming Weng ups it to 160,000 before small blind Haitao Huang pumps it to 300,000 and ends the hand right there, scooping the second pot in a row.

With 24 players remaining in the hunt the organizers redraw for the final three tables and hand out five additional time banks to everyone.
