Championship Warm Up ($600)

Li Guangming of China makes a bold move by going all-in blind from utg for 121,500. However, it didn’t get very far as right on utg+2 Germany’s Martin Sedlak re-raises all-in to isolate his opponent and no one else came into the pot.

The Chinese player shows T♠ 8♠ , a decent hand from a “no look” shove. However, Sedlak tables A♣ T♦ , dominating his foe.

The first three community cards go: 7♦ 6♣ 2♠ (giving Li an open-ended straight draw). The turn, though, is the 5♦ and the river is the 6♥ to eliminate Li and put Sedlak in a favorable position to contend for the chip lead.

The pot steadily built to 39,000 by the river on a board of T♥ 3♦ 3♠ J♥ K♦ as both Li Guangmin of China and Korea’s Woo Kwon put all they had in the middle in one of the sickest revelations of the day.

Li is first to show and tables 3♣ 3♥ for quads on the flop. Woo shows K♥ K♣ for a full house on the river.

Woo’s stack plummets to a mere 2,000 after the ridiculous cooler.
