Sosia Jiang is table captain and that does not look like changing any time soon and she has won all four of the first hands of heads-up.
The first hand saw Raghav Bansal limp the button but immediately fold to a Jiang raise, and Bansal folded to out to a Jiang button raise the very next hand.
This trend continued with the third hand playing out exactly the same as the first. On the fourth hand we had our first flop with Jiang making it 75,000 to go on the button and Bansal making the call.
Both players checked the 
flop with Bansal also checking the 
turn. Jiang now chose to fire, throwing out two red 25k chips for an enticing 50,000 bet. Bansal check-raised to 180,000 and Jiang quickly slid out a purple 100k calling chip.
The 
river completed the hand and the betting and Bansal turned over 
but could not best Jiang’s 
and slumped down to 575,000 while Jiang rises to 8.475 million.

Sosia Jiang limped in from the small blind and Troy Quenneville checked his option out of the big blind. On the 
flop, Jiang bet 30,000 and Quenneville called before the 
fell on the turn. Jiang made it 250,000 to go and Quenneville called, the 
river then completed the board.
Jiang moved all in for effectively more than two times the pot, as Quenneville had around 1,600,000 left. The Canadian shot out of his chair and studied the board, then called with around 10 seconds left on his shot clock. Jiang flipped over 
for the nut flush and Quenneville mucked his 
for broadway.
Quenneville had to settle for third place and a payday of HK$1,800,000, which equals US$234,000. Jiang will enter heads-up with a huge lead over Bansal.

It’s a rollercoaster ride of a tournament for former front runner Raghav Bansal who’s stack is going up and down so fast it’s a wonder he hasn’t been sick all over the table.
It was Sosia Jiang controlling this particular fairground ride; Bansal raised up to 80,000 from the small blind and Jiang re-raised to 200,000 in total with Bansal making the call.
The Indian player checked the 
flop over to Jiang, who c-bet 300,000, which Bansal called before checking the turn, and while there was a little big of confusion with Jiang missing the check and running the clock down thinking the action was still on Bansal, she eventually checked it back.
The river saw Bansal check once more and Jiang reached for chips, making it 350,000 to go.
“This is so sick,” muttered Bansal, “Do you have it?”
Jiang must look like she does as Bansal folded to drop down to 1.6m while Jiang climbed up to the giddy heights of 5.8 million.
The Indian player’s ride was not over here though with Bansal and Troy Quenneville playing a big pot immediately after. Bansal made it 70,000 to go on the button and Quenneville called from the big blind to take the action to a flop of 
.
Quenneville checked, Bansal bet 80,000 and the Canadian called and the hit the turn. This brought a second check from Quenneville and another bet from Bansal, this one a slightly larger 225,000.
After a short visit to the think tank Quenneville called to create s sizable pot and it was off to the river, which brought four to a straight. The Canadian checked for a third time and Bansal bet big, firing out 425,000.
The shot clock ticked down to 5 before Quenneville threw in the call and Bansal turned over , which were no good as Quenneville had made the call with 
and scooped the chunky pot to climb to 2.25 million while the Indian took a big hit and dropped to 755,000.
Bansal managed to climb back to close to the 1-million chip mark the very next hand, defending his big blind against a Sosia Jiang 70,000 button raise. The 
flop brought a check from Bansal and a bet of 55,000 from Jiang, which was called to bring in the turn.
Both players checked and the 
river brought four to a flush. Bansal set a trap with a check but Jiang did not trigger it and checked it back. Bansal’s turned over for the nut flush and Jiang mucked.

and Quenneville bet 30,000, Bansal called. On the turn, the Canadian fired 135,000 and Bansal folded.

Nick Petrangelo raised to 60,000 from the button and then faced the three-bet of Sosia Jiang in the big blind. Petrangelo moved all in for less than a million and Jiang snap-called.
Nick Petrangelo: 
Sosia Jiang:
The flop changed nothing much, while Petrangelo picked up a few outs for a miracle on the 
turn. However, a blank on the river sent the poker pro to the rail in 4th place and he added another HK$1,465,000 (~US$190,450) to his two previous second-place finishes during the festival at the PokerStars LIVE Macau poker room.
All remaining three players have HK$1,800,000 locked up, which equals approximately US$234,000.

Troy Quenneville and Raghav Bansal have clashed in back-to-back hands, winning one each. Quenneville came out of both encounters with more chips than he went in with though so he won’t be too unhappy.
In the first, it was Quenneville raising from the button to 67,000 with Bansal making the call from the big blind. Both players checked the 
flop and the turn before Bansal led for a tickly little 35,000 bet on the river.
Quenneville came over the top with a raise to 84,000 in total, and after thinking it over Bansal tossed in the call, but could only muck when Quenneville turned over[ 8c5c] for a turned straight.
The Canadian was at it again the next hand, opening from under-the-gun for 67,000 and when the action got around to Bansal he re-popped it up to 193,000.
Quenneville shot him a stare and made the call to bring the action to the rather arid flop. Bansal led for 161,000 and Quenneville folded immediately.
