Xu and Ruan Eliminated

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Jieming Xu
Jieming Xu

At almost the same time on neighboring tables, Jieming Xu and Jiayu Ruan have been eliminated to reduce the field to the final 39 hopefuls.

Xu was all in with pocket fives and Ngoc Tai Hoang looked him up with the {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}. The flip ran out in favor of Hoang thanks to a board of {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades}{k-Diamonds}.

Ruan got it in with the {a-Spades}{j-Clubs} and Lei Yu quickly called with {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}. No help came on a {10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{9-Spades}{10-Spades} board to send Ruan to the rail, too.

Ip Doubles Through Yotsushika

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Kazuhiko Yotsushika had squeezed to 35,000 and Derek Ip then moved all in for 178,500 to force a fold from the initial raiser. Yotsushika used one time bank extension and then made the call.

Derek Ip: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Kazuhiko Yotsushika: {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}

The board came {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and Ip more than doubled while Yotsushika's hot run was stopped for now, he remains the chip leader with 41 players remaining.

Soyza Doubles Through Sun

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Michael Soyzaa
Michael Soyzaa

The live stream has caught up on the double of Michael Soyza, who dodged a lot of outs against Bin Sun.

Sun had been the initial raiser with {9-Spades}{7-Spades} from under the gun and was called by Jiayu Ruan with {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} and Soyza with {k-Clubs}{q-Spades} in the small blind. Soyza check-shoved the {k-Spades}{10-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop for 124,000 and Sun called after he had invested 18,000 only.

Neither the {3-Diamonds} turn nor the {8-Clubs} river improved Sun and Soyza doubled into a big stack.

Down to Six Tables

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Only 44 players remain as the eliminations keep coming at a rapid pace right now. Among others, Xinglong Huang was sent to the rail by Zedao Ma and Kazuhiko Yotsushika scored a big knockout to boost his stack well past half a million in chips.

Dingxiang Ong vanished and Huu Dung Nguyen did so shortly after two tables over when he clashed with Yao Bai.

Yao Bai: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Huu Dung Nguyen: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

The board came {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{6-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} and Bai flopped top pair, then held against a big double draw.

Noda Busts; Hoang Doubles

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

After his previous bad beat, Hiroyuki Noda got it in with the {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} and the very same player that had doubled through him before made the call with the {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. The board came {j-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{k-Spades} and Noda's aces were cracked by runner-runner two pair.

Ngoc Tai Hoang was more fortunate when he got it in with the {a-Spades}{q-Spades} against Phachara Wongwichit with {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. The {k-Spades}{j-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{3-Clubs} board gave Hoang the nutflush and Wongwichit a king-high straight.
