Will Ysmael Wins Significant Chips With Ace High

Level 14: 1,500 / 3,000 ante: 3,000
Will Ysmael

Will Ysmael made a 6,000 min-raise from under the gun and was called by hi-jack Julian Warhurst, button Moses Saquing and big blind Takumi Odani. Four players were shown a flop of Q♠ 4♥ K♣ . All four checked to see a 5♥ on the turn. Action was checked to Ysmael, who bet out 12,500. Warhurst stood down while Saquing and Odani made the call to see a 3♠ on the river. The three remaining checked again for a show-card moment.


Odani showed a busted guthsot. Saquing mucked. Ysmael's ace high was good enough to take down the pot.

Kiim Kiyoung

After the storm in the city subsided, so did the action settle down at Okada Manila where Flight B of the APPT Manila Championship concluded for the day. 194 entries made the buy-in of PHP 165,000 (~US$ 2,850) to compete for their share of the PHP 55,000,000 (~US$ 960,850) guaranteed prize pool. 80 players were still on their seats to bag their chips at the end of 11 levels and nearly 12 hours of poker. Those 80 players will be back tomorrow to compete again in the Day 2 leg and will be joined by the 59 players who advanced from Flight A.
