APL MAIN EVENT (26,000 TWD)

With an open and two calls ahead, Sangjun Jung pulled a squeeze on the cutoff for 8,500. Initial raiser folded, Yoon Young Jin called, and Lam Vu shoved the rest of his 40,000 starting stack. Jung pushed likewise, while Yoon bowed out, leaving the two to showdown.

Vu a huge favorite to win, locked in the clean double as board T♥ 6♥ 7♠ 8♥ K♣ left his ace-queen high ahead.

Action was picked up on the turn Q♥ 9♣ 7♣ 8♣ with 26,800 already in the pot. Jung In Jae checked his option, and Yoon Young Jin on the button fired a bet of 10,000. Without hesitation, Jung moved all-in for 10,600 more, applying maximum pressure on his opponent. After some thought, Yoon decided to lay it down, conceding the pot to Jung’s well-timed shove.

Janghwan Kim set the pace to 500 utg and was called by both players on the blinds - Lam Vu and Yoon Young Jin.

On flop 8♣ 7♣ 5♠ , Yoon led for 1,500, Kim called, and Vu check raised to 5,000. Only Kim stuck around to see turn 4♥ , where he called another 6,500 barrel.

Action slowed down on river 4♦ , shortly revealing Vu's top two pair 8♥ 7♥ for the win.
