by Christian Zetzsche • August 25, 2026 - 9:06 AM

Early into the third level of play, three-way action to the Q ♠️ 8 ♥️ 7 ♠️ flop was checked to Jeonggil Kim and he bet 3,500. Atsushi Takeuchi called and Samuel Schwarz folded.

The 9 ♠️ turn was checked and Takeuchi then bet the 3 ♠️ river for 14,000.

Kim went into the tank and then called, but didn't have to show as Takeuchi opted to muck his cards.

Player Chip Count
Jeonggil Kim 113,000
Atsushi Takeuchi 85,000
