Before being moved tables, Tsukasa Endo lost a bigger portion of his still large stack to Sungwon Seo when he paid off three barrels on a board of A♦ 9♥ 7♣ K♠ T♦ and mucked to the A♠ K♣ of Seo for 75,000 on the river.

He then called the 64,000 shove by Hee Woong Kim with ace-queen. The suited jack of Kim failed to improve beyond the Q♣ J♥ 3♠ flop as the 6♠ turn and 2♥ river were blanks.

Hee Woong Kim had missed the first two levels entirely and his stack had shriveled. He then got it in against the chip leader Yoo Young Jin and the queen-high held on a board of A♠ 5♦ 5♣ 8♣ 3♠ for the double.

With Hee Woong Kim still not having shown up and in the small blind, Manwoo Park on the button pushed all-in. Jihwan Park called all-in and both players tabled an ace.

The board ran out J♣ T♣ 5♥ K♣ A♦ and the kicker played no role as they chopped it up.

A short-stacked Noori Na jammed for the last 5,600 from under the gun and was called by Hee Woong Kim in the big blind. The board ran out Q♣ 8♦ 2♦ K♥ T♥ and the queen on the flop spelled the end for Park.
