Field Grows, Or-Paz Exits

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

The field has grown to 108 entrants, 87 of whom remain in contention. Some of the more recent arrivals include reigning Asia Player of the Year Jack Wu, Sweden��s Roger Spets and Ireland��s John Gallagher.

However, one man who is no longer in the running, unless of course he choses to re-buy, is Tom Or-Paz who busted at the hands of Korea��s Jae Wook Shin.

We missed Or-Paz��s exit hand but arrived in time to see Shin stacking up a pile of chips and Or-Paz��s seat conspicuously empty apart from his tournament receipt.

Shin chose to play his rush the very next hand, opening to 900 from late position with Sam Nee (small blind) and Kenneth Buck (big blind) making the call to take the action three-way to a flop of {k-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{q-Spades}.

There was no more betting in the hand with all three players checking the flop, the {9-Hearts} turn and the {7-Spades} river.

Nee turned over {j-Hearts}{6-Clubs}, Buck had the best pre-flop hand with {a-Clubs}{10-Spades} but Shin, holding {a-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} had out flopped the Australian and took down another pot.
