Daeyoung Park

Daeyoung Park raised to 400,000 on the button with the 9 ♥️ 8 ♠️ and was called by Tsu Yun Yang in the big blind with the 10 ♥️ 5 ♥️ .

On the A ♠️ 9 ♠️ 3 ♥️ flop, Yang checked and Park continued for 325,000 with his second pair. Yang had other plans and check-raised to 1,100,000 for Park to call.

The 8 ♥️ followed on the turn to promise fireworks, as Yang found a flush draw against the two pair of Park. Yang now checked and Park bet 1,500,000. What followed was the quick shove by Yang and that sent Park deep into the tank.

He had received new time banks to start the final table and used all of them before making the call in the biggest pot of the tournament so far.

The river was the 4 ♦️ and Park dougled into the lead.
