MYSTERY BOUNTY (200$ TO BOUNTY POOL) ($675)

Van Tien Dinh opened to 800 and faced a three-bet to 3,000 from Thanh Long Nguyen. Dinh responded with a four-bet to 6,000, only for Nguyen to five-bet shove all-in. Dinh snap-called, putting Nguyen at risk.

Thanh Long Nguyen: T♠ 9♠

Van Tien Dinh: A♣ A♠

The board ran out K♦ 3♣ 4♣ 4♠ J♥, offering no help to Nguyen. Dinh’s aces held strong, eliminating Nguyen from the tournament and leaving Dinh momentarily stunned by the aggressive pre-flop action.

Ruby Pernecita opened to 700 from the lowjack and picked up two callers—Michael Truong in the cutoff and Nam Nguyen in the big blind.

The flop came A♦ 3♥ 4♥, and after Nguyen checked, Pernecita continued for 1,100. Truong made the call, while Nguyen got out of the way.

The 9♣ landed on the turn, and Pernecita kept up the aggression with a 2,200 bet. That was enough to force a fold from Truong and secure the pot.

Sewy Steenman opened the action with a raise to 600 from under the gun and picked up two callers: Pham Quoc Tuan in middle position and Sacha Bayard on the button.

The flop came 6♣ 7♠ 3♣, and after Steenman checked, Tuan fired out 1,000. Bayard quickly folded, and Steenman made the call.

The 3♥ hit the turn, and both players opted to check it through. The river brought the 5♦, and again, the action went check-check.

Steenman tabled 8♦ 8♣ for an overpair, which was good enough to take down the pot after Tuan mucked his hand.

Action was picked up on the flop of A♦ 7♣ 4x with two players all-in — Huncao Tri Nguyen and Viet An Nguyen, the latter at risk.

Viet An Nguyen: K♠ K♥

Huncao Tri Nguyen: A♣ Q♣

Tri Nguyen had already found an ace on the flop to take the lead. The runout of 4♣ and Q♦ gave him two pair, sending Viet An Nguyen to the rail.

Oleg Voshchiniv opened to 500 from the cutoff and was called by Thanh Long Nguyen on the button to see the flop.

The flop came 4♠ 8♦ Q♣ and was checked by both players. Voshchiniv continued on the T♥ turn, and Nguyen called.

On the T♣ river, Voshchiniv fired 2,000, which was enough to get Nguyen to fold.
