Ka Kwan Lau won this event at PokerStars Championship Macau, but he's going to need a reentry to repeat the feat after a brutal bustout. He got it in there with

Six players put in 1,800 preflop, and everyone checked to Mike Watson, who bet 10,800 last to act on a 
flop. Only Alexander Uskov, on Watson's right, wanted to keep playing. Uskov checked the 
turn and Watson jammed for what looked like about 26,000. Uskov folded fairly quickly.
At another table, Konstantinos Bouloutsos sat in.
Sampo Ryynanen and Anthony Zinno have entered for the first time, and George Wolff has opted to reenter.
Felipe Ramos limped in at the previous level and Hok Lee made it 2,200 from the cutoff. Luc Greenwood called in the big blind, and Ramos sprang to life with a reraise to 9,000. Lee called after some thought, and Greenwood came along too. The flop came
