Broadway Beats Lower Straight

Level 6: 500 / 1,000 ante: 1,000

Xugang Zhang

A completed board of K♦ J♣ 8♠ A♥ 7♦ sat on the felt with a healthy 30,000 already built into the pot. Ruidi Yu led out with a bet of 15,000, only to face an immediate all-in shove for 66,000 from Xugang Zhang.

Yu hesitated for a moment, weighing the options before ultimately committing the chips to make the call.

Xugang Zhang: Q♦ T♦

Ruidi Yu: T♣ 9♠

Zhang tabled the broadway nut straight, while Yu revealed a lower straight that hit on the river. The cooler hand secured a full double-up for Zhang.

Neagoe Ace-High Call Leaves Table Stunned

Level 4: 400 / 800 ante: 800

Darius Neagoe (L) - Jieming Xu (R)

A preflop betting war between Darius Neagoe in early position and Jieming Xu in the hijack built a sizable pot of 23,500 before the dealer even ran the flop.

The flop landed T♣ 5♣ 2♥. Neagoe led out for 5,500, only to face a swift raise to 25,000 from Xu. Neagoe hesitated for a moment but eventually made the call to see the 5♥ turn.

Neagoe checked, and Xu fired a massive bet worth half a starting stack. Neagoe went deep into the tank before finally announcing an all-in raise for 46,500. Xu snap-called, creating a massive showdown.

Darius Neagoe: A♠ K♠

Jieming Xu: K♥ 4♥

The table was stunned to see the showdown.

Neagoe was ahead with just ace-high, while Xu was semi-bluffing with a king-high flush draw. The 8♠ river missed all draws, allowing Neagoe's ace-king high to hold up for a massive double-up.

What a high-caliber move to start the day!

Day 1B Ready to Build on Strong Day 1A Turnout

The action resumes today as the second opening flight, Day 1B, of the KRW 4,000,000 (~USD 2,640) buy-in Red Dragon Plus Championship has officially kicked off at 12:00 PM local time.

The field taking the felt this afternoon will face the exact same structure as the opening flight: 10 levels of play, deep stacks, and plenty of room to maneuver.

Day 1A set a high bar for the tournament, attracting a strong crowd of 163 entries. By the time the final bags came out at the end of the night, only 54 players successfully punched a ticket to Day 2, led by Yawei Deng’s massive 900,000-chip stack.

For anyone eliminated during yesterday’s action or opting to skip the opening flight entirely, today offers a fresh start. Three opening flights remain on the schedule over today and tomorrow, and late registration stays open through the first two levels of Day 2.

Updates will continue throughout the day covering key chip movements, big hands, and eliminations straight from the tournament floor.

Event starts 12:00 local time..
