Kelvin Beattie
Kelvin Beattie

Kelvin Beattie went all in from under the gun +1 and it looked like he might get through but he eventually found a caller in Toshimasa Kawahira, from the small blind. Once the big blind folded Kawahira yelled "nuts, baby" as he turned over {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}. Beattie responded with "don't show me the nuts." as he turned over {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {10-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and Kawahira's aces held, eliminating Beattie from the tournament in 17th place. They are now consolidating down to two tables.

Tsun Ming Chan

Tsun Ming Chan had been all in many times before he just found his Waterloo in 18th place. This one last all in went as following as he pushed about 40,000 chips into the pot from early position. Makoto Yoshimichi raised to 104,000 from the small blind and the big blind folded immediately.

Chan: {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Yoshimichi: {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}

The board ran out {3-Clubs}{8-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and that finally marked the end of Chan's impressive run. Yoshimichi meanwhile has put himself near the top of the counts with about 550,000 chips.

Lucky Seven For Kan

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Raiden Kan was chipped down all the way to just 86,000 chips when he moved all in from the button just now. Tsun Ming Chan, who had been all in many times already, moved all in over the top from the small blind and the big blind gave up.

Kan: {Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Chan: {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}

The board ran out {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades} and Kan slammed the table when he hit his lucky seven on the turn. Kan stays alive and Chan is now once again the shortest stack.

Toan Ngoc Nguyen Eliminated in 20th Place (₩6,860,000)

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Toan Ngoc Nguyen opened the action with a raise to 24,000 from middle position. Christian Haggart made the call from the button, as did Sam Cohen from the small blind.

The flop came {2-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and Cohen led for 27,000. Nguyen made the call and the action was on Haggart who decided to move all in for an addition 209,000. Cohen let her hand go and Nguyen was put to ta decision. After a countdown of Haggart's chips and a realization they were pretty even, he decided to go with his hand.

Nguyen tabled {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} and Haggart showed {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for a flush draw. The turn came {q-Hearts} which gave Haggart some more outs, one of which was realized when the {j-Clubs} fell on the river. Once the chips were counted, Nguyen was left with just 12,000.

It was a few hands later that he would be eliminated when multiple players went to the flop and Shinya Umano made a flush to eliminate Nguyen in 20th place.
