Liu's Ladies Land Super Double Boost From Kang

Level 14: 1,000 / 2,500 ante: 2,500

Jun Liu

Jun Liu jammed all-in from UTG+1 for 108,600, causing everyone to fold except for big blind Daon Kang who decided to defend.

Liu showed the ladies and Kang looked disappointed when he dropped the nines. Liu's ladies led on the flop and was slightly threatened when Kang grabbed some outs with a gut-shot on the turn. However, Kang bricked on the river and crumbled his stack to crumbs.

Skarparis Makes Presence Felt

Level 8: 400 / 800 ante: 800

Georgios Skarparis

7,200 was in the pot with a board that showed 6♦ 3♦ 6♠ K♣. Oliver Schulze checked his option from the big blind as did Georgios Skarparis from UTG+1, allowing Daon Kang to fire 3,500. Shulze called and Skarpars then raised all-in. Kang thought hard, threw in a time bank card, but decided to give up. Shulze peeked at his cards and also decided to surrender.
