W HIGHROLLER ($5,000)

Another big 3-bet shove played out on the field as Vo Phi Bang moved all in with A♦ 9♦ , only to get called by Zhifan Ye, who held Q♠ T♠ .

The board ran out 2♣ 7♦ K♠ 4♠ 3♠ , bringing in a runner-runner flush for Ye and crushing Bang’s hopes of a double.

With that, Vo Phi Bang hit the rail as the soft bubble, just short of a final table seat.

The action heats up, the remaining 12 players are now on a break, with the bubble drawing closer. Hoang Hai Nam is currently in the driver's seat, holding a commanding lead with 2 million in chips.

The pressure is rising as only 13 players remain in the tournament, and the money bubble is quickly approaching. With just a few eliminations left before the payouts begin, every decision is becoming more crucial.

Among the recent bustouts are John Matsuda and Titov Oleg, both of whom fell short of reaching the final table and a potential payday. The remaining players are now fighting not only for a spot at the final table, but also to avoid becoming the last to leave empty-handed.

Play will continue until we reach the final 9, where the real prize chase begins.

Do Tien Vu opened with a min-raise and quickly called when Vo Phi Bang shoved over the top.

Vu tabled K♣ Q♥ , but he was in rough shape against Bang’s K♦ K♥ .

The board ran out 5♥ 3♣ 2♣ K♠ 4♣ , giving Bang top set and leaving Vu drawing dead by the turn.

With no help for Vu, Vo Phi Bang scored a clean double up.
