Hu Leads The Way; Melchers Not Far Behind

Matthew Bushell lost a bigger pot after which David Hu jumped to the top of the leaderboard.

Hu was then also involved in a heads-up pot in a battle of the blinds with Dorian Melchers in which a pot of around 450,000 emerged until the river. Melchers overbet for 650,000 and Hu reluctantly folded.
