Adams and Loeser Re-enter, Alner Arrives Late and Doubles Early
Canada��s Timothy Adams and Germany��s Manig Loeser have both chosen to re-enter and while the former is still close to the 50k starting stack Loeser has been busy and has run his second bullet up to the giddy heights of 120,000.
Another player whose tournament is headed in the right direction is the UK��s Tom Alner who is a recent late arrival. The Brit was recently seated at (now former) chip leader Yang Wang��s table and has just earned himself a double up at Wang��s expense.
Action folded around to Alner on the button and he made it 2,000 to go with Wang the only caller in the big blind. The flop was a rather arid 
and Wang chose to lead into the raiser with a bet of 2,300.
Alner thought it over for 15-seconds or so and then re-raised to 6,700 in total and it was Wang��s turn to think, though not for long and he threw in the extras.
Wang checked the 
turn over to Alner, who thought for a bit before making it 11,000 to go, only to see Wang reach for raising chips and the Chinese player check-raised to 22,000.
This sent Alner into the tank and he burned through the first of his timebank chips before moving all-in and Wang called quickly.
Tom Alner: 
Yang Wang: 
Alner was the at risk player but had just paired his king and would just need to fade Wang��s gutshot straight draw and did so when the river came down 
to give him the double. Alner climbed to 100,800 and Wang dropped some to 124,000.
