Shi Dong just sat down at the table (after busting the €1,150 Main Event in 243rd place for €3,980), and on his very first hand in the tournament, he opened to 2,000 from the Lo-jack. He was faced with a three-bet to 6,000 from Subba Rajavolu (Cut-off), to which he responded by going all-in for 30,000 in total. After twisting and turning in his chair for a couple of seconds, Rajavolu made the call.

Subba Rajavolu:
Dong extended his lead on the flop, and the saw him secure a full double-up at the expense of Rajavolu. “Not a bad start, is it?” tablemate Christopher Barnard congratulated Dong on the hand. “I wished it had happened in the Main Event instead,” Dong replied with a cheeky smile.
Shi Dong: 62,500
Subba Rajavolu: 7,600
