We lost another player just before the break. It was a three-way raised pot, with the flop coming down {J-Hearts}

{5-Spades}

{9-Clubs}

. Diwei Huang was first to act from the big blind. He checked to Jung Hyun Choi, who bet 20,000, enough to fold the third player in the hand. With action back to Huang, he check-raised to 70,000. Choi didn't hesitate long before he shoved all in for 250,000, sending Huang deep into the tank. He finally called.

Choi: {7-Spades}

Huang:

{J-Diamonds}

It was top pair, top kicker for Huang against nothing but a gutshot draw and some imagination from Choi. The board bricked out running fives, {5-Hearts}

, to send Choi to the rail and make Huang the far and away chip leader with about 860,000.
