The Bubble Is Rapidly Approaching

by Christian Zetzsche • September 25, 2026 - 1:57 PM

Several players have been knocked out in quick succession and among them were Dorel Cohen and Yat Kei Daniel Leung. Cohen lost almost all of his chips with A ♣️ Q ♣️ against the A ♥️ 10 ♣️ of Chien Te Lee because the latter spiked two pair on the 10 ♠️ 6 ♦️ 3 ♥️ A ♠️ 5 ♥️ board.

Leung had a similar story with ace-king against the K ♠️ K ♦️ of Yongjae Jeong on the 8 ♣️ 3 ♥️ 3 ♠️ 10 ♦️ 5 ♦️ runout. Both departed shortly after the massive setbacks. Jinhwan Kim and Tzu En Lin were also among the rapid casualties.

We are down to 35 players with the top 29 set to advance.

Player Chip Count
Yongjae Jeong 690,000
