Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Hwany Lee
Hwany Lee

Ankit Ahuja raised to 24,000 from the early position and Kyungkun Lee called in the hijack. Hwany Lee three-bet shoved from the cutoff for 221,000. Action folded back to Ahuja who confirmed the amount before shoving himself. Lee took some time and then folded.

Hwany Lee: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Ankit Ahuja: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for Lee to stay ahead but Ahuja picked up the nut flush draw.

The turn was the {9-Hearts} for Lee still to be ahead but for Ahuja to add some extra outs as he now also had the gutshot to a straight.

The river completed the board with the {6-Diamonds} to give Ahuja the flush indeed to eliminate Lee in ninth place for ?644,950 ($12,613).

First River on the Final Table

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

With no hands going to showdown, the action has been slow with these pretty deep stacks.

Shigeji Kusakabe raised to 22,000 from the late position and Kannapong Thanarattrakul defended his big blind.

They both checked through the {9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{10-Spades} flop and the {9-Hearts} on the turn to the {8-Spades} on the river. Thanarattrakul bet 10,000 and smiled. Kusakabe took a few seconds and made the call. Thanarattrakul tabled {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} for the pair of nines on the board with the ace and king as kickers. Kusakabe nodded and showed just the {a-Spades}.
