On a flop of Heart 8Spade 6Club 5, Michael Tse Hua (pictured) checks from the big blind and a player in middle position moves all in for about 35,000. Hua quickly calls and the cards are tabled.

Middle position shows Heart KClub K, but lets out a groan of disappointment when he sees Hua’s Heart 5Diamond 5, giving him bottom set.

The turn is the Spade 4 and the river is the Diamond J to keep Hua’s set in the lead and give him a knockout.

“You just knew the five was coming, huh,” said another player at the table.

Hua smiled and nodded as he continues to build his stack on Day 2.
