Dylan Honeyman is our new chip leader!
He scooped up a massive pot against Hyunko Kang.
We picked up the action on the turn of a board, with Kang having checked to Honeyman, who bet 96,000. Back on Kang and he check-raised to a very large 196,000. Honeyman took a few moments before moving all in. Honeyman easily had Kang covered as Kang had left himself with just 70,000 after that check-raise. Kang obviously wasn't happy with the hand he held, because he decided he would fold and leave himself very short stacked!
Honeyman is up around 800,000.
