APPT National ($1,000)

Bien Mai picks up K♦ T♦ under the gun and raises 2000. Both blinds - Sebastien Lapp and Sungheon Hong - call for a three-way to the flop T♠ 2♥ 7♦ . Mai is given the go-ahead and bets 3500, only Lapp continues to the turn 9♦ where both check. On the river 2♦ , Mai's top pair improves to a flush. He jumps out with a 15,000 bet, Lapp calls then mucks after seeing Mai’s hand.

Bien Mai continues the aggression, raising 1700 from under the gun. Action folds around to the small blind Sebastien Lapp, he jams his last 10,000 and Mai snap-calls.

Upon revealing, Lapp shows A♣ Q♣ and is in trouble with Mai ahead A♠ K♠ , however, lady luck is on his side and drops a queen on the flop. When the board completes A♥ Q♥ 9♦ T♦ 5♦ , neither have a diamond for the pair to grant Lapp a double.

Sebastien Lapp opened the action with a raise to 11,000 from early position and picked up calls from both blinds, Bien Mai and Aladin Reskallah, to go three-way to a flop of 5♦ K♣ 8♥ . Lapp kept up the pressure with a 3,000 c-bet, and again, both blinds called.

The turn brought the 8♦ , pairing the board. The blinds checked once more, and Lapp repeated his 3,000 bet, getting two more calls. On the river, facing a pot of around 38,000, Lapp took the lead again, this time for 10,000. The pressure finally paid off, as both blinds folded to give Lapp the pot.

Sebastien Lapp opens from early position then calls big blind Quang Trinh Do's three-bet. When the flop comes 5♣ 9♠ 8♣ , Quang continues to fire and Lapp calls again. On the turn T♠ , and nearly half of his stack in the pot, Quang goes all in for his last 10,000 and still doesn't shake off Lapp.

The cards are then flipped. Quang's K♦ K♥ is in trouble against Lapp's T♦ T♣ set. The river 5♠ seals the win for Lapp as Quang speeds off and will likely be re-entering.
