Jun Fang Eliminated in 5th Place for HKD 366,300 ($46,848)
It is all change at the top once more with the departure of Jun Fang. It was Wei Ran Pu the man to send him to the rail, having already pushed Yang Wang off a pot with a pre-flop three-bet to 725,000 the hand prior.
The hand afterward Fang was the driver, making it 200,000 from the cut off and Pu reached for raising chips again, to chuckles from the rest of the table. Pu made it a slightly cheaper 625,000 to go and Fang hit the think tank. Eventually, he emerged and moved all-in, with Pu making a quick call and the cards were flipped over.
Jun Fang:
Wei Ran Pu:
Fang was the at-risk player and it was down to a coinflip to decided his fate, and the poker gods were not feeling all that generous, with the runout coming to keep Pu's jacks in front. Fang is out in fifth for an HKD 366,300 payday, while Pu now has 6.9 million and a commanding lead.
