The action is coming to the boil now and a huge hand played out between the final table’s two remaining Malaysian players Richard Yong and Chan Wai Leong that saw the latter’s tournament come to a close in a rather brutal fashion.
It was Leong who was the initial aggressor, making it 250,000 to go from under-the-gun and Yong made the call from the big blind to take both players to the 
flop.
Yong check-called Leong’s 250,000 c-bet and the 
hit the turn, bringing another check from Yong and a second barrel from Leong, this one a slightly larger 450,000.
Yong quickly announced he was all-in and Leong rocked back in his chair looking puzzled. However, he decided to make the call for his tournament life and the cards were turned over.
Chan Wai Leong: 
Richard Yong: 
While Leong held the lead with two pair Yong had a straight draw which hit when the 
landed on the river to bring Loeng’s deep run in the Main Event to an end and he departed with $407,101 while Yong stacked up t0 3.7 million.
