Chu Hong Fu and Kunal Patni Eliminated on the Day 1c Bubble

Kunal Patni

The hand-for-hand mode is not underway yet and there are indeed two all-in and call at the same time on different tables.

Ngoc Anh Cao raises to 16,000 and then calls the shove by Chu Hong Fu for what appears to be 119,000 total. They already turn over their cards before the floor staff tells them to flip em back over. At the same time, Kunal Patni is out of his chair on another table and the crowd of curious players paces between both actions to see what is happening.

The first all-in to run is Cao versus Fu.

Chu Hong Fu:
Ngoc Anh Cao:

Pocket queens hold on the board and that reduces the field to the last 66 hopefuls, ensuring that the bubble bursts.

There is, however, another all-in and call. Two tables over, the button raises to 18,000, small blind Ta Son Tung and big blind Kunal Patni call. On the flop , everyone checks. Following the turn Tung bets 50,000, Patni shoves 175,000, button folds, Tung asks to pull in his bet to determine how much more it is, tanks and then calls. 

Kunal Patni:
Ta Son Tung:

A big crowd builds around the table, the river lands for a straight to Tung to eliminate Patni. 

Ngoc Anh Cao – 770,000
Ta Son Tung – 610,000
Kunal Patni – Eliminated on the Day 1c Bubble
Chu Hong Fu – Eliminated on the Day 1c Bubble

Both Fu and Patni split the min-cash of VND39,000,000 to at least walk away with some money. Everybody else is now bagging chips for the night. Full counts are to follow once they are provided by the Crown Poker Club.
