Huang Wins One; Busts Lee

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Yan Li had busted an opponent over on table five to boost her stack further and the next all in showdown also took place over there.

First, however, Ming Huang won a small pot off Jian Yang when he check-called a bet of 20,000 on the {k-Spades}{9-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop and they checked the {a-Hearts} turn and {7-Hearts} river. Yang had {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} and Huang rivered two pair with {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

Soon after, Jamie Lee vanished and Wai Kiat Lee confirmed that Lee had ended up second-best with ace-ten against the ace-king of Huang.

Yuan Loses to Heung; Busts Glasspool

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Yilu Yuan bet 35,000 on the river of an ace-high board and called the raise to 81,000 by Wayne Heung, who had an ace and dragged in a very healthy pot. The very next hand, Yuan raised and called the shove of Robert Glasspool out of the blinds with {a-Spades}{8-Spades}.

Glasspool only had {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and the {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{7-Spades} flop left him drawing to a straight only. He picked up a few more outs with the {9-Hearts} turn, but the river was a blank.
