Wu, Zou and Chan All Gone; Wong Pushes Out Wong; Sau and Tso Chop
We have lost three more players in quick succession and Yu Fai Wu, Lu Zou and Wingkei Chan have all bitten the dust to bring the field down to the final ten.
Ka Meng Ho is no longer the frontrunner, that honor now belongs to Percy Chao though Phachara Wongwichit and Joey Wong are not all that far behind, although Wong just dropped back a little after folding out a hand to Nick Wong.
We picked up the action on the turn with over 34,000 already in the pot and the community cards spread just as Joey Wong (small blind) checked the action over to Nick Wong (big blind).
Nick shoved for 19,000 and while he looked tempted Joey eventually let it go. Nick climbed to 53,000 while Joey dropped down to 81,000.
Ho Yin Sau and Wei Tso played a big pot shortly after this, with Sau moving all-in on the flop on a board of for 19,100 with . Tso looked him up from the blinds with and while the turn was a good one for Sau the river resulted in a rather anti-climatic chop.
