Warm Up Mystery Bounty Concludes Flights with Chen Jui in Strong Position
The opening rounds of the Warm Up Mystery Bounty are now in the books as Flight D brings the starting phase to a close. The final heat draws 74 entries, pushing the combined total across four flights to 366 entries.
As with the earlier sessions, play reaches the 15% ITM threshold, with 11 players advancing from Flight D and bringing the total number of Final Day qualifiers to 55.
At the top of the Flight D counts is 🇹🇼 Chen Jui, who bags 486,000 chips. His surge comes just before the final break, where he wins a pivotal pocket-pair confrontation against 🇵🇭 David Erquiaga, stripping nearly 50 big blinds and seizing control of the leaderboard. Chen finishes just behind overall chip leader 🇭🇰 Tang Chi Ngong in the combined standings.
Also finishing strong is 🇹🇼 Daniel Yang, who closes with 430,000 chips. His stack ranks sixth overall heading into the Final Day, keeping him firmly in contention as the Mystery Bounty element takes center stage.
All 55 qualifiers now turn their focus to Sunday, December 15th, when the Mystery Bounties come into play and the chase intensifies.
