Siu Man Hin and Farrington Double
The action is coming to the boil here in the Poker King Cup Macau Main Event and the 73 remaining players are swapping chips left, right and center.
Haoyu Hu has recently taken a hit at the hands of Siu Man Hin with the two getting all the chips in pre-flop.

Siu Man Hin:
It looked like Hin was on his way out when the flop fell but the turn gave the Hong Kong player some additional outs. The hit the river to bring a fist pump ‘yeah!’ from Hin and he doubled to 160,000 while Hu dropped to 260,000.
Then a massive pot developed between Denmark’s Frederik Farrington and China’s Dong Kimi that saw the two swap places in the pecking order.
While Kimi started the hand with a little over 500,000 Farrington now has this much while Kimi has 250,000.
Kimi was the initial aggressor, opening to 12,000 and picking up a middle position caller before Farrington re-raised to 35,000 from the button. Kimi made the call and the other player bowed out to take the action heads-up to a flop.
Kimi checked it over to Farrington, who fired for 30,000 and Kimi then check-raised to 75,000, which the Danish player called.
A hit the turn and Kimi moved all-in with Farrington making a speedy call and Kimi was in a spot of trouble, his ace-jack trailing to Farrington’s pocket aces, and while he had a gutshot straight draw it did not come in on the river.
