MAIN EVENT (CS) - 8 HANDED

The $750 flight C for The Lord Poker Tour Circuit Main Event with a guaranteed prize pool of $700,000 concludes during level 19 with Kai Cui becoming the bubble in 17th.

A total of 210 entries tried their luck and saw Bin Wang emerge as the new overall chip leader bagging a whopping 877,000 at the end. His rise during the last levels started with the elimination of Hungarian Patrik Demus with A♦ A♥ against Demus' J♣ T♣ that got him from one of the shortest stacks to 117,000 (23 BB) followed by knocking out Anton Lu who had K♠ K♣ and Wang hit with A♦ 9♣ on the board J♠ J♥ A♣ 3♦ 3♣ scooping a hefty preflop all-in pot that got him to 402,000 (40 BB). Just a few hands after in level 18 he dominated Zhengpeng Liu with A♠ 8♥ against Liu's K♦ 8♠ , netting another 152,000 and never looked back.

Being the new table chip leader, he dominated the last two levels with extremely aggressive play, winning a lot of small to medium sized pots preflop with several orbits where he took down half the hands that were played, getting him in a commanding overall chip lead for Day 2 at the moment. His 877,000 will be worth 175BB when the blinds will be scaled back to level 14 at the start of Day 2.

Yang Liu finished with 620,000 (124 BB) and Jiaming Zhao will have 589,000 (118 BB) to his name tomorrow at 12:00.

The last of four flights is still in full swing and we will migrate to the live updates over there in just a few minutes.
