Zongxin Liu and Kilian Loffler

While massive stacked Yun Yao Hung was bullying with his big stack at Table 6, on the other felt, table leader Kilian Loffler was doing the same, scooping pot after pot as his raises went unchallenged.

That changed when Zongxin Liu decided to defend his big blind.

Both players then checked through the turn, completing the board to J ♠️ Q ♦️ 7 ♦️ K ♥️ Q ♠️. Liu checked once more then Loffler sized him up, betting 200,000 that put Liu all in.

Liu went into the tank, then announced,

"Okay!" as he pushed his remaining chips forward.

Unfortunately for Liu, Loffler had the goods. He turned over Q ♥️ 9 ♣️ trips, crushing Liu's K ♠️ 2 ♠️ two pair to deliver the bubble.

With that, the final 16 players was determined and they bagged up to end Flight A.
