APL MAIN EVENT (26,000 TWD)

Facing an open and two calls, Uhsang Ahn squeezed to 45,000 on the button. The initial raiser got out of the way, but both Minkwan Chae and Zhi Yu Wang completed to see a flop. The board ran out 8♦ 6♠ 3♦ , and after both Chae and Zhi checked, Ahn wasted no time firing 55,000. That was all it took to get both to fold, earning Ahn the 40 BB pot without further contest.

Mean Huang kicked off the action with a 5,000 open in early position, called by Naohiro Matsuda behind. Zhi Yu Wang on the button, sent out an 18,500 three bet, and both completed.

Action checked to turn Q♥ 4♠ T♣ Q♠ , where Huang led 5,500. Matsuda responded with a raise to 16,500, forcing Wang out of the way, and Huang stuck around with the call.

On river 6♠ , Matsuda moved all-in, leaving Huang with no hesitation to put his last 40,000 on the line.

Matsuda revealed trip queens A♦ Q♣ , utterly crushed by Huang's rivered flush J♠ T♠ for the 70 BB pot.
