Kanghoon Lee and Anton Iakimenko
Kanghoon Lee is currently chip leading after two big pots sent his way. The first one was caught with three players remaining in the hand on a board of 10 ♥️ 5 ♠️ 2 ♦️ 7 ♥️ and 47,000 in the pot.
Out of the small blind seat, Romain Lihacovs led for 25,000, Lee made it 50,000 on the big blind, and Anton Iakimenko tank-folded at under the gun. Back to Lihacovs, he opted to fold as well.
Next hand, action folded to small blind Lee who raised to 5,000, big blind Iakimenko defended with a three-bet to 18,000, then Lee jammed with a covering stack. Iakimenko tanked for two time chips then risked his over starting stack.
Kanghoon Lee: 8 ♦️ 8 ♠️
Anton Iakimenko: A ♣️ 6 ♣️
Iakimenko's ace was his only hope however failed to partner up on a board of 2 ♥️ K ♦️ 7 ♣️ 5 ♥️ 5 ♣️ to become the flight's second casualty.
