Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Qiang Fu raised to 90,000 and Tu Tran called to see the {q-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop, on which Tran checked. Fu made it 100,000 to go and Tran moved all in, prompting Fu to ask for the exact amount and his bet to be pulled all in. The jam was for another 765,000 on top and Fu reluctantly called.

Tu Tran: {q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}
Qiang Fu: {8-Spades}{5-Spades}

When he spotted the cards of his opponent, Fu nodded as the rail came closer to see the showdown. Tran was ahead with top pair, but Fu spiked the {8-Clubs} turn to improve to two pair.

Tran's hand was still live, but the {7-Diamonds} river was a blank to end his run in 2nd place for A$54,995. Fu has been crowned the champion and takes home the trophy, as well as the first-place prize of A$89,003 that comes along with it.

A recap of today's action is to follow.
