Day 2 - Final
Nguyen Sends Kang To Exit

Wongyu Kang raised all-in from under the gun for 190,000. Small blind Duy Thuc Nguyen also re-raised all-in just in case the big blind had thoughts of jumping in.
Classic flip of two overs vs smaller pair.
The flop added more outs for Kang but none of them came in the turn or river. The chips were shipped Nguyen's way and Kang went the other way to the exit.
