WPT Main Event

China's Junjie Ren closes the final flight on schedule with a dominating lead into the Day 2 rounds. Ren amassed a chip count of 529,000 by day's end and stands to be the sole runner to breach the half a million mark.

Ren stepped out into the limelight following a smashing hero call against Vietnam's The Nguyen Bui by the eighth level of play, having bravely called down all three streets with ace high on a ten high board. The Chinese runner successfully delivered his opponent's elimination following the call, and continued to chip up with a sizable pot coming from Tom Henricus propelling him well above the field.

Fan Shi comes second in position, stacking a healthy 445,500, followed by Japan's Andrew Matahira with 386,000 and Song Wang with 381,000. All four contenders sit atop the overall counts, having bagged just enough to surpass both Day 1A and Day 1B chip leaders.

WPT Main Event Day 1C action is down to its last three hands as players begin to prepare for bagging time.

Games resume tomorrow, November 19th at 12 noon sharp.

Chao Li risked his entire 70,000 against initial raiser Tom Henricus and was left in pieces as the Dutch runner flipped over a better pocket pair. An ace high flop A♠ 3♣ 5♦ instantly landed on the felt, with no runner runner jack coming on 6♣ 7♦ to save Li from his demise.

Yuancheng Zhu opened to 4,500 utg and called off Anthony Seiki's 40,000 all-in. Dominated, Zhu lucked out as board T♥ 6♠ 2♦ A♥ J♣ landed him a broadway straight on the river to turn the tables.

With 60,000 in the middle across board 7♠ J♥ 9♠ 7♣ 8♦ , action was caught on Wanyu Zhang with an all-in for Seiya Shoji's 29,000 behind. Shoji called off with a full house J♦ J♣ , yet was crushed as Zhang tabled quads 7♥ 7♦ .

Another all-in preflop situation saw Hao Yang as the latest casualty, having ran his 136,000 stack with Q♠ Q♣ right into Shuang Li's A♦ A♣ . Board T♣ 5♦ 9♥ 5♥ 3♥ steered clear of any queens, shipping it all to Li.

A cooler situation landed on the table with Lei Shi on the losing end against Patryk Slusarek for his tournament life (129,500). Board 6♦ 3♣ 5♦ J♠ 2♣ offered no salvation for Shi, eliminating him from the running entirely.

Dongchao Zhang opened to 3,000 from utg+1 and was met with a three bet to 9,500 from Hiori Konisho on the button. Zhang answered with another raise to 23,000 and committed his 25,000 behind after Konisho moved all-in.

In rough shape, Zhang crashed out, having failed to improve on board 5♦ 4♣ 2♠ T♥ 3♣ .

Meng Ling Lin open shoved her last 23,000 from the cutoff and was called by Zongguo Tian a seat behind. In search of an ace, the board Q♠ 5♥ 3♥ J♠ T♥ felted none, leaving Lin high and dry.

Tom Henricus opened to 3,000 from utg+1 and was met with a raise behind by button Junjie Ren. Lei Yu on the big blind, made it 14,000 to go, called by both.

Action on flop J♠ J♦ 3♣ was checked to Ren, who bet 14,500, called by Yu. Henricus raised to 35,000, and weeded only Yu out of the pot. Henricus gunned for another 17,000 on turn A♦ , and went on to check call 32,500 from Ren on river 6♥ .

Ren revealed trip jacks J♣ 9♣ and added another boost to his already stack as Henricus mucked.

Facing an open from Yiyu Zhou, Haoran Hu flicked in his last 12,500, followed by a raise to 25,000 from Qiuming Qin behind. Zhou came along on flop J♣ T♣ 4♠ , and went ahead to lead all-in . Qin check folded, leaving the two to showdown.

Zhou Q♥ Q♠

Hu 7♥ 7♦

In rough shape, no help for Hu came on either turn 6♥ or river K♠ , sealing his elimination entirely.

Hao Yang opened to 3,500 from the hijack, called behind by Shuang Li along with the big blind. On flop 9♦ 4♠ 7♠ , Li called another 5,000 from the raiser and headed to turn 5♠ . Both checked it through to river T♠ , where Yang sent out a final 10,000. Li gave up the pot and threw in the fold.

Shiina Okamoto opened to 3,000 on the button, to which Peng Wu defended his big blind. Both checked flop 9♥ 7♥ T♦ through to turn K♦ , where Wu led for 6,000. Okamoto put in the call, and snap called another 17,000 on river A♥ . Wu instantly mucked, earning Okamoto the pot by default.

That's it for the WPT Main Event with registration at the final flight officially closed! A total of 667 entries were recorded across the three heats with today's showing attracting the largest turnout on schedule. Final numbers to be disclosed once posted.

Facing an open and a call, Tsuyoshi Ikeda stuffed his remaining 27,100 in and was called by initial raiser Yiming Guo for a pocket pair battle. A favorite to win, Ikeda cruised to a double up as dry board 7♣ 9♣ K♥ 4♣ 8♥ left him in no sweat.

Yi Qin opened to 2,000 from utg and saw both players on the blinds come along on flop 8♠ 5♦ 7♦ . Checked to Qin, he bet 2,500, called by Xinhong Li. Action back to Xiangzhu Jiang, he raised to 8,000, which didn't deter any of the two from continuing to turn T♦ . Both Li and Jiang checked to Qin, prompting him to bet 22,000. Li made the call for his tournament life with a straight J♥ 9♥ , and was left drawing dead as Qin revealed nut flush A♦ 2♦ .

Hui Wang opened to 2,000, and was met with a three bet and four bet behind. Wang was left unfazed, and shoved his 41,300 stack in. Fabio Oka put in the call with A♥ Q♣ , and booked the loss against Wang's A♣ K♥ across board 3♠ 3♦ 7♥ 9♠ 5♠ .

Mingwei Li opened to 2,000 from utg, called by Haichao Zou behind. On flop 7♠ 7♣ 3♣ , Li opted to check raise to 8,500, yet tank fold after Zou bumped it up further to 18,500.
