Madness Kick Off (11,000,000 VND)

Yongyi Liu raised to 220,000 from the lo-jack and called the three-bet to 500,000 from Herve Gouzil on the hi-jack. Both players see a flop of A♥ 7♥ 3♥. Both players check to see a 6♠ on the turn.

Liu fired 500,000 and Gouzil made the call to see a T♦ river.

Liu announced "all in" for 1,400,000 and Gouzil snap-called.

Liu showed a pair of aces with A♦ 8♦, but Gouzil did better and showed a set with A♠ A♣ to take down the huge pot, jump to pole position of the chip count leaderboard and eliminate Liu.

Liu bagged home VND 108,000,000 (~USD 4,200).
