14 Players Left At The Championship Event

Pham Truong Giang - 15th place - VN₫101,000,000

It's a shove fest at the Championship Event and now it is down to 14 players. After Alex Lindop cracked Pham Truong Giang's aces, Pham plunged to 6 bb then lost it all to Lindop with A♥ 8♦ dominating J♦ 9♠ to finish in 15th place.

Before Pham's fall, Nguyen Trung Ha got chunked to 7 bb by Ledong Zhou when his 8♣ 8♦ dodged Nguyen's A♦ Q♥ overcards. Nguyen recovered some by doubling up through Tianhao Zheng with A♥ 9♦ besting Q♦ 5♥ .

Bui Van Nam - 16th place

Not so fortunate though for Bui Van Nam who three-bet his last 16 bb on A♣ T♠ then failed to improve against Jun Zhao's K♦ K♠ that even landed a set.
