Under the gun kicks off the action with a raise to 12,000, finds a flat from +1, hijack Yi Ye ups it to 42,000 and cutoff Gary Thompson jams 121,000. No takers for the Irishman to pick up another pot after going all-in within a few hands.

Small blind Yi Ye leads 7,500 and Gary Thompson defends to see the flop 4♣ K♣ 7♠ where Ye's 4,000 continuation gets called to the turn K♦ and another 11,000 gets met by Thompson for the board to complete 3♦ .
