APT Main Event (85,000 PHP)

There was over 50,000 in the pot right beside a board that read 5♠ 7♦ 5♥ Q♦ Q♥ Junwoo Lee fired 25,000 from the button after Richard Marquez checked his big blind option. Marquez looked at the board and felt confident that his ace would split the pot. Marquez was wrong. Lee flipped over T♦ T♠ for a better two-pair while Marquez showed the A♠ while mucking the other card.

Seungyong An opened the cutoff to 3,200 only to be jammed by Junwoo Lee from the button. An called.

Junwoo Lee: J♣ J♥

Seungyong An: A♣ Q♠

An took over the lead from Lee on the flop of 2♣ 5♠ A♦ with a pair of aces. Soon the dealer delivered a dry runout of T♠ 2♥ , which sent Lee to the exit.

Action folded around to Ronnie Tate on the button, who counted out a raise of 8,000 only to see Junwoo Lee move all-in from the small blind, which was enough to put Tate at risk.

Tate went deep into the think tank for several minutes before finally electing to roll the dice, slamming down the call and rolling over Q♦ Q♥ and looked relieved to see Lee reveal his two red tens – T♥ T♦

The 7♠ 8♣ 3♦ flop kept Tate's nose in front, but the 9♠ turn definitely gave him a sweat.

Fortunately though, the poker gods were feeling magnanimous and the 7♥ paired the river to grant Tate a last gasp double right at the close of play, shooting him up to 93,000, while Lee dropped down to 44,000.

Junwoo Lee made it 2,100 to see a flop from early position with Chun How Wong calling from the next seat and Ronnie Tate defending the big blind.

The flop arrived 3♥ 8♣ 7♦ Action was checked to the pre-flop raiser and Lee obliged with a 2,000 lead.

Wong and Tate met the bet to see a K♠ on the turn. Everyone double-tapped to Lee, who fired another 6,500. Wong stepped aside and Tate shoved all-in with Lee making the call.

Lee showed a K♣ T♦ for top pair while Tate flashed K♥ 7♥ for a two-pair. The river threw a brick to guarantee Tate the much-needed double-up, and the award for best hat of the day.

Wonchul Bae opened the cutoff too 300 and received two callers, Junwoo Lee and Batzolboo Soronzonbold from the blinds.

On the flop of 7♠ 2♣ 9♣ , the blinds checked to Bae, who then bet 500, which only Lee called to see a T♥ hit on the turn. Both players checked through.

A board-pairing T♣ showed on the river, and Lee bet 600 this time, forcing his opponent to muck his hand.
