The shouting commenced on table 10 once again and that could only mean Chia Hsiang Ko was involved in an all-in showdown.

Takemi Munakata was all-in with A ♦️ K ♦️ against his 5 ♠️ 5 ♦️ and the 8 ♣️ 4 ♠️ 3 ♠️ 7 ♦️ J ♦️ board kept the pocket pair ahead, sending Munakata to the rail. Several other players busted in very quick succession thereafter to bring the field down to the last seven tables.
