Luyckx Takes a Hit, Chan Running Hot
We caught Belgium��s Bart Luyckx in action in a three-way hand on the flop with the board reading 
just as Luyckx led for 2,500 from middle position into the 5,000 pot.
Malaysia��s Kok Wei, sitting in the hi-jack, made the call and the big blind folded taking the action heads-up to the 
turn. Luyckx slowed down and checked, but Wei showed no such restraint, making it 3,700, which Luyckx called.
The 
river saw Luyckx check again and Wei fired for 6,000. While he didn��t seem too thrilled about it Luyckx tossed in the call, but could only pitch his cards into the muck when Wei rolled over 
for the flopped Broadway straight. Luyckx dropped to19,300 after that little misadventure while Wei now had 34,700.
Immediately after this, we caught Hong Kong��s Justin Chan embroiled in a pot against another player. The action was on the flop and while we do not know who shoved first both players were all in already with the board reading 
.
Chan had 
, which was leading his opponent��s 
open-ended straight draw. The 
turn locked up the hand for Chan, giving him an unbeatable full house and his opponent headed for the rail while Chan stacked up to 66,000.
