Two Knockouts and a Double-Up
Paul Teoh jammed his short stack in with the A?J? and Eng Siang Ewe looked him up with the Q?Q? form the next seat.
The board ran out K?K?9?9?6? and the queens held as the field was brought down to the last 13 contenders.
Danny Tang then jammed over the top of a raise by Paul Phua and engaged in friendly table banter, seemingly asking for a fold. He was called and the cards were revealed.
Danny Tang: A?8?
Paul Phua: K?Q?
The A?Q?6?6?9? board delivered a double-up to Tang.
Moments later the floor staff announced for the action to stop as another player was eliminated. That happened to be Ghai Pang Yap, who got it in with ten-nine for top two pair on 10?9?6?. Winfred Yu looked him up with the K?8? for a gutshot and flush draw, which missed the J? turn but hit on the A? river.
