An early gamble, two players piled their stacks in the middle preflop with Tran Cong Huan up against Park Joong Kwan. A huge favorite, Tran secured the win as board ran 3♥ 9♥ J♣ K♥ 2♣ . Park forfeits his stack and goes on to re-buy.

Having built up 55,600 already in the middle on board K♥ Q♦ T♦ 5♠ 8♠, action was spotted on Qiu Jinqiang betting all-in for 16,200. Do Quang Thai makes the call with A♠ A♣ and is crushed to see his opponent table T♥ T♣ for the win.

Vying for a pot of 11,100 on board A♣ 3♦ 8♣ 7♣ 7♦ , Karia Siddharth led out a bet of 8,000 and called a raise for 8,000 more from Dinh Si Cong. Dinh shows 3♥ 3♠ and ships the pot after Karia mucks.

With 8,500 in the middle on flop 9♥ A♣ 3♠ , Nguyen Minh Hoai An was seen leading out from the big blind for 4,000, called by initial raiser Nishant Sharma. Nguyen went on to barrel 7,000 on turn 5♠ and a final 15,000 on turn 7♦ , with Nishant calling behind both streets. Nguyen shows A♠ Q♣ and chops it up as Nishant tables A♦ Q♥ .

With nine tables running, a number of notable runners have already joined the fray, with Nishant Sharma, Peng Yang, Pham Duy Anh, and Hoang Hai Nam, in battle right at the first level.
