Play was hand-for-hand in Event 4, as the field had just dropped to it’s two final tables, and we were only one elimination away from being in the money when a very unique and statistically rare hand occurred.
Odette Temblay raised to 22,000 from middle position, and Rong Xu followed up with a 3bet to 52,000 from the button. Bo Yan Shi quickly 4bet his 284,000 stack from the big blind, and was snap called by both Odette and Rong.

Rong:
Bo Yan couldn’t find help on a board showing , and went from being one of the chip leaders to out on the bubble! Odette started the hand with roughly 75,000 chips, and split the main pot with Rong, who collected the additional 200,000+ from the side pot.
Rong now leads the tournament with over 550,000 in chips.
