Board runs K♠ 3♣ 6♠ 8♣ 3♥

Takuma Sasaki - A♥ J♠

Da De Titus Tay - J♥ J♣

Adrien Berger - Q♥ Q♠

13,000 open from Donghyup Kim in +1 and two callers from HJ and SB. 8♣ 3♥ Q♦ for an 18,000 c-bet, called by Da De Titus Tay and raised to 42,000 by Michael Falcon. Kim adds some more to make it 100,000, Tay is out and Falcon calls. Falcon check-shoves the J♣ turn and Kim puts everything on the line with A♦ A♠ . Falcon has Q♣ 8♠ two pair, the 9♦ river doesn't change anything and Kim just misses the payouts.

In the next hand Michael Falcon continues his aggression with another 13,000 open from UTG and Donghyup Kim in the HJ, and Da De Titus Tay on the button call. The flop J♣ 6♠ 8♣ is only good enough for Kim to continue versus Falcon's 15,000 c-bet and we go to the turn 7♦ heads up. Falcon check-raises 80,000 to Kim's 35,000 bet, but elects to fold when Kim goes all-in.

Da De Titus Tay opens 10,000 from UTG+1 with Anton Poliakov calling from the SB. The flop 3♥ J♠ 3♠ has Titus Tay bet-calling Poliakov's 35,000 raise. A♣ on the turn with Poliakov leading 40,000 and a call by Titus Tay reaveals the 8♦ river with Poliakov shoving and a quick call. A♠ J♥ for Titus Tay takes down a 348,000 pot against Poliakovs missed flush draw 9♠ 5♠ .

Facing a min-raise that's called, Donghyup Kim defends the big blind then bets 15,000 on the flop 9♥ 3♣ 4♦ . Only initial raiser Tay takes interest and they head to the turn 4♣ which both check. On the river 7♦ , Kim sends out 20,000, Tay calls, Kim shows K♦ 9♦ top pair for the pot.
