WPT Cambodia Championship ($3,500)

Kunal Patni won a big flip with jacks against the ace-king of Joshua McCully, who busts soon after. In the meanwhile, Konstantin Held emerges from his undercover run and nearly doubles the stack he started with so far, now sitting between Hugues Girard and Ngoc Ha Nguyen. The same table has already lost Joris Michl and Dhaval Mudgal.

Following a raise of 8000 from Yunkyu Song, cutoff player Shai Arbel three-bets all in holding 5♦ 5♣ . A few spots over on the big blind, Erwan Regnault does the same and covers Arbel. Song folds. Regnault has A♦ Q♣ for a flip.

With the board landing K♠ T♦ K♥ K♦ 7♥ , Arbel survives to double up as Erwan plunges.

Jesus Fernandez started the day with a healthy stack but has since dropped to30,000. He is all in with A♠ Q♦ and gets a reload courtesy of Shai Arbel with A♥ 7♠ on a board of 8♣ J♣ A♦ 2♥ 3♣ .

The evening is winding down with fewer than 160 players remaining, the field for an above average stack continues. Shai Arbel check-raises a bet of Emmanuel Segismundo on the Q♠ J♠ 9♠ flop from 6,500 to 15,000.

Arbel then leads the 4♦ turn for Segismundo to call again and they check the 8♠ river when the fourth spade arrives. Segismundo shakes his head, Arbel tables J♣ 6♠ and Segismundo mucks while partly exposing the five of spades.

With the board showing J♣ 5♦ 2♠ 2♦ on the turn, Renat Bohdanov bets 8,500 from the small blind, Shai Arbel moves all in from UTG+1 for 31,000, and Bohdanov goes into the tank.

Bohdanov is in the tank for a couple of minutes before somebody calls for a clock, and shortly after that, Bohdanov calls with T♥ T♦ .

But Arbel turns over J♦ 9♦ for a pair of jacks, and needs it to hold to stay alive.

The river card is the Q♥ , and Arbel wins the pot with his pair of jacks to double up in chips.

Sherif Derias raises from middle position to 1,200, Shai Arbel reraises from the small blind to 4,800, and Derias reraises to 11,200.

Arbel five-bets all in, and Derias quickly calls all in for 23,600 with Q♥ Q♣ . Arbel turns over A♣ Q♦ , and Derias needs his hand to hold to stay alive.

The board comes Q♠ 8♥ 4♦ 8♣ A♥ , and Derias flops a set of queens and turns a full house to win the pot and double up in chips.
