Cary Katz Falls to Aaron Van Blarcum
Stephen Chidwick limped the hijack and Cary Katz raised to 40,000 in the cutoff. Aaron Van Blarcum bumped it up to 240,000 on the button and action folded back to Katz who called for his total stack of 82,000.
Cary Katz: [astd]
Aaron Van Blarcum: [ackd]
The flop was not beautiful for Katz when the dealer spread [9c7c6c] out but a [th] turn card put him into the driver’s seat with his pair of dimes. Unfortunately, the [qc] completed the board, giving Blarcum a flush and the pot, sending Katz to the door.

Jason Koon Takes an Exit
Lee Wai Kiat added another undesired end to Jason Koon’s unlucky week when Koon put his last 220,000 into the middle and Kiat called in what was a flip.
Jason Koon: [thtc]
Lee Wai Kiat: [adjd]
The dealer fanned out [khqc6h] and Koon was still in the lead with his dimes. A [kc] turn brought more outs for Kiat as he could then counterfeit Koon’s pair.
The [as] hit the felt as the river card, pairing up Kiat’s ace to take down the pot and Koon was then eliminated.

Wai Leong Chan Takes Some Back from Michael Soyza
Just moments after Wai Leong Chan sent a full double to Michael Soyza he found a spot to grab some back. Chan raised and Soyza announced all-in. Chan snap-called for his 314,000 and the two tabled their hands.
Wai Leong Chan: [khkc]
Michael Soyza: [jsjh]
The dealer spread out [adtstc9hqd] on the flop and Chan’s kings were more than enough to secure a double through Soyza.
