In the last hand before the break, William Teoh and Fu Chi Sze got into a preflop raising war in which the latter was the player at risk for 36,400.
Fu Chi Sze: K♦K♥
William Teoh: A♠10♠
The 8♠4♦3♠ flop and 5♣ turn gave Teoh a straight and flush draw. However, the 8♥ river was a brick and Teoh had to part ways with nearly two thirds of his stack.
Level: 7
Blinds: 400/800
Ante: 800
There are 85 players out of 113 entries remaining and they have been sent on a second scheduled 15-minute break. Another three levels and the following 50-minute dinner break are available for those interested in jumping in.
Edwin Dela Cruz earned a full double after his J♠J♦ flopped a set on a board of J♥10♥8♦4♠Q♣. Jhon Hendri was the one to lose almost his entire stack as he was left with some ten big blinds, which disappeared shortly thereafter.
Three ways to the A♠Q♦6♥Q♣ turn, it checked to Bonifacio Mondalo and he bet 6,000. Only one opponent called while Min Hwa Kim folded, then sighed when he spotted the K♣ on the river. It checked to Mondalo again and he bet 20,000.
His opponent had just 7,000 behind and Mondalo was trying to talk him into a call, yet the reluctant fold followed. Mondalo flashed the J♣7♣ for a bluff and Kim joked "ah, flush draw on the river!".
In the late stages of level six, there are 82 players out of 108 entries remaining.
Three ways to the J♥6♦5♠2♠ turn, Kanishka Samant checked and William Teoh bet 6,600. Valeriy Pak then jammed for 10,200 and Samant moved all-in over the top. Teoh inquired with the floor if the shove was possible and since Samant check-raised, that was the case, forcing out Teoh in the process.
Valeriy Pak: J♣8♣
Kanishka Samant: K♥K♣
The 3♠ on the river brought an end to the first bullet of Pak.
Bonifacio Mondalo was not pleased at all when he had to pay off Min Hwa Kim, as his cards were already dragged into the muck. On a board of 9♥4♦2♣A♥8♥, Kim's K♥4♥ had flopped middle pair, turned the nut flush draw and got there on the river to score a full double for 20,900.
Mondalo banged his hand on the table in disgust.
