The action on the two five-handed tables has slowed down and most of the hands have been ending preflop or on the flop.

One of the more notable clashes includes an open raise by Motoyoshi Okamura to 105,000 from under the gun. Joshua Mccully three-bets to 270,000 on the button and Kou Vang eyeballs his stack size before moving all-in from the small blind for about 1,875,000.

Kyle Bao Diep pauses to think from the big blind, but Okamura folds out of turn, which results in a three-hand penalty. Diep then folds, as does Okamura, and Mccully also flings his cards into the muck.

Kou Vang – 2,350,000 (47 bb)
Motoyoshi Okamura – 3,900,000 (78 bb)
Joshua Mccully – 2,000,000 (40 bb)
