Kiat Busts Kojiya, Kozlov Kills Zisimopoulos
Lee Wai Kiat opened the action with a raise to 8,500 from early position and a short-stacked Soichiro Kojiya squeezed his cards and moved all-in for the last of his chips.
Action folded back around to Kiat who asked for a count, but it was not that much more as Kojiya only had 38,000 and Kiat called quickly.
Lee Wai Kiat: 
Soichiro Kojiya: 
Kojiya’s race was over as soon as the flop fell 
. Left drawing to the decks two remaining sevens the Japanese players’ chances of survival looked slim and the 
turn and 
river brought no help and he headed for the exit while Kiat stacked up to around 180,000.
Kojiya will not be lonely on the rail however and will be joined by Dario Sammartino, Aaron Lim and Georgios Zisimopoulos, the latter of whom got his last 80,000 in with ace-nine and ran into the ace-queen of Martin Kozlov who now has 204,000.
