: 300/600, 100 ante
In the last hands of the night, Dingxiang Ong won a big three-way all in with pocket aces against the pocket kings of Dzmitry Urbanovich and a third player with pocket tens. However, Ong missed out on the overnight lead as he forfeited a decent chunk of his stack to Pierce McKellar in the final hand of the night.
As a result, Paul-Francois Tedeschi grabbed the Day 1a lead. The full counts and a recap of today's action are to follow.
