Kuo, Hunichen and Muehloecker Active Pre-Bubble
Level 16
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
The stack of Kitty Kuo was just verified and came off as an astonishing 490,000 chips, though at this point it is unclear how the EPT regular and poker lover from Taiwan got there. Chris Hunichen from one table over has also used the upcoming bubble to increase his stack and Thomas Muehloecker just played a pot to regain lost profit.
Muehloecker opened to 9,000 and Ferdinand le Pichon three-bet to 24,000 out of the big blind. Muehloecker called and le Pichon checked the flop 
. Muehloecker then bet 28,500 and that won the pot.
One more table played a hand still and Christoph Vogelsang eventually gave up to start-of-the-day chip leader Alexander Ivarsson after very long consideration.
