APPT Main Event ($1,650)

Ziad Zebib takes control preflop with a 7000 raise then maintains aggression by betting down the board Q♣ K♦ 7♥ 6♦ 9♣ . Big blind caller Takashi Yagura calls 6500 and 11,000 but doesn’t reach in on the river to award Zebib the pot.

Two players take interest in John Clyde Tan’s 7000 raise preflop but only Takashi Yagura continues to the turn by calling Tan’s 10,000 c-bet of the flop 6♦ 2♦ 3♥ . With Q♦ on fourth street, Tan fuels the pot a larger 23,000 and it’s enough to win the pot without further challenge.

From hijack Xianqi Chan makes it 2000 to see the flop and two players think it's cheap enough to join in. The cards land 6♥ 5♦ 2♦ , Chan bets another 2000 and only Yagura goes to the turn 6♥ . With the river 8♣ , Chan barrels a much larger 16,000, Yagura pays to see then quickly mucks to Chan's 3♦ 4♦ straight.
