Anson Tsang Eliminated in 9th Place (HK$139,000)
It took exactly 17 minutes of level 29 �C over two and a half hours after the elimination of Shen Zheng �C before the final table lost another player, with Day 2 frontrunner Anson Tsang the man to fall to close out the day.
There were obviously some pots played before this, but none were particularly significant until action folded around to Tsang on the button, who had become one of the shorter stacks �C with only Weizhou Zha on less.
Down to his last 625,000 Tsang moved all-in and was beaten into the pot by small blind Zhong Yuan Hang and the cards were turned over.
Anson Tsang: 
Zhong Yuan Hang: 
Tsang was the at-risk player and held the dominated hand and the 
flop saw Hang strengthen his lead. The 
turn saw Tsang pick up a gutshot straight draw but his hopes of a suck-out were dashed with the appearance of the 
river.
That pot saw Hang edge in front of Longyun Li for the chip lead and he stacked up to 4,280,000 as the remaining eight players bagged up their chips.
All that action concludes the day and play will resume at 1:30pm on Friday, May 26 as the official 8-handed final table plays down until a champion is crowned so join us then.
There will be a full end of day write up and chip counts to follow so watch this space.
