APPT Main Event ($1,750)

Malaysia’s Mok Jo Seng opens from the cutoff for 2,400 and gets 3-bet by Zheng Xiaosheng of China from the SB for 11,000. Out of nowhere, Mauricio Sanchez of Colombia 4-bets all-in for 56.400.

Mok immediately folds while Zheng takes a moment to ponder and go deep in thought before deciding that prudence is the better pay of valor and throw his hole cards into the muck.

From UTG, Sweden’s Fritz Douhan limps and is met by a raise from Mok Jo Seng of Malaysia at the +1 position to 800. Vietnam’s Nguyen Trung Chien makes the call from the BB and Douhan comes along.

The flop goes 7♥ 9♥ 5♦ as suddenly the Swede takes the betting lead for 800. Mok calls but Nguyen folds. It is Heads Up to the turn which brings in the 3♦ as Douhan fires another 800 bet. Mok still calls. The river is the J♦ and this time, Douhan checks. Mok then unloads 4,000 and gets called.

Mok unfurls K♥ K♦ while Douhan shows 9♣ 2♣ for top pair on the flop, quashed by the Malaysian’s cowboys.
