William Kang bubbled Day 1b
Syvain Chhang raises to 2,000 and then faces a three-bet to 8,000 by Sisung Yoon from one seat over. William Kang calls in the cutoff and Chhang checks his cards very high, exposing them to the dealer and potentially Yoon as well. Kang calls the tournament director and the dealer confirms that she saw the cards.
Chhang is reminded to be careful and he then opts to fold with the being exposed upon request of the tournament director. Yoon instantly jams a flop and Kang beats him into the pot.
Sisung Yoon:
William Kang:
The turn gives Kang a straight and the river changes nothing. Both stacks are counted and the 23,000 of Yoon are covered.
William Kang – 68,000
Syvain Chhang – 63,000
Sisung Yoon – Eliminated
