Duhan Lee Leads Final Day

Level 34: 250,000 / 500,000 ante: 500,000

Duhan Lee

Day 2 of the WPT Prime Thailand Exhibition Championship has officially wrapped after a wild, turbo-charged session that saw 292 contenders whittled down to just 14 survivors. With the average stack down to a mere eleven big blinds and the pressure mounting by the minute, the race for Thailand’s first ever WPT title is entering its thrilling final stretch.

Leading the charge into the Final Day is none other than South Korea's Duhan Lee with 16,175,000 (32 BB), who surged late in the day following several key knockouts and a few last minute wins, to edge the lead over the field. Close on his heels are China's Hong Cai (13,750,000) and Haoran Sun (13,400,000), all locked and loaded as they prepare for the final sprint toward Championship glory.

When cards go back in the air tomorrow, the remaining fourteen players will return with their eyes firmly set on the THB 11,477,000 (~USD 350,000) top prize in travel funds and a coveted must-play seat to the WPT World Championship in Las Vegas worth another USD 10,400. All finalists are now guaranteed a minimum payout of THB 721,000 (~USD 22,145) in travel funds and a chance to make history as Thailand’s first Championship winner.

Play resumes at 6:00 PM sharp, where blinds will continue at a lightning-fast 20-minute pace, and action down to the last man standing. Stay tuned as SMP brings you live updates, key hands, and all the big moments straight from the tournament floor!
