Philippines National Cup (12,000 PHP)

Jeorge Lagatuz shoved all in from the button with his last 20,000 chips and Eurvd Rivera called from the small blind to put Lagatuz at risk.

Jeorge Lagatuz 8♠ 4♣

Euryd Rivera K♦ 8♣

The flop came T♠ 3♦ 7♠ , giving Lagatuz small chance to survive with a backdoor flush draw. However, the board made the decision that it was still not time for Lagatuz to leave as the runout filled out 3♠ 5♠ to complete Lagatuz’s flush which earned him a small double up.

Marco Espela raised from the cutoff and Jeorge Lagatuz defended his big blind.

They went to a flop of K♥ 4♥ 5♣ where Lagatuz check-called a bet of 15,000 from Espela, then they both checked the K♠ turn.

A 9♠ dropped on the river and Lagatuz reached for chips and fired out 35,000. Espela went into the tank and was trying to piece together the puzzle, and after some time, he called.

Lagatuz showed Q♥ J♥ for a missed flush draw, and Espela tabled A♠ 8♦ for just ace-high to claim the pot.
