Chu Che Chun's Run Ends In 10th For NTD 94,300 (~$2,905) And The Final Table Has Cometh

With a raise to 100,000 from BU Yoda Lin and BB Chu Che Chun defending we see an increasingly rare flop T♥ 4♠ K♥ without anybody being all-in yet.

The board completes 7♠ and K♣ with no help for the player at risk which gets us to the final table.
