Philippines National Cup (12,000 PHP)

Suya Lee shoved for 81,000 from under the gun and Rex Clinkscales shoved from the next seat for 121,000. The action folded around to Minghui Li on the button, who got a count of both stacks before he eventually folded, and claimed to have mucked ace-king, much to the surprise of the table.

Suya Lee: Q♥ J♠

Rex Clinkscales: A♥ 7♠

"You folded ace-king?" asked a surprised Clinkscales.

Maybe Li can see into the future as the flop of 7♥ 4♣ 6♦ would have seen him fall behind as Clinkscales paired his seven. The 3♦ turn did bring around some chop outs, but instead Lee scooped it all as the J♣ river gave him a pair of jacks.

Jester Intia found himself in an unusual situation, as his hand was declared dead before he even had the chance to look at his cards.

The incident occurred when Jeongmin Park, folding from under the gun, accidentally tossed his cards onto Intia's unprotected hand in the big blind. Park quickly reclaimed his cards, verifying they were his, and the floor was called over to decide if Intia's hand was still live or if it should be ruled dead.

After deliberation, the floor ruled that Intia’s hand was dead due to being unprotected, which led to his cards mixing with Park’s, even if Park did confirm he reclaimed the cards he folded. It was a tough break for Intia, who was forced to surrender 2 big blinds without a chance to defend them.

Rex Clinkscales then shoved from middle position, and took down the pot as the rest of the table folded.

Rex Clinkscales opened the button to 11,000 only to be jammed by Emmanuel Segismundo for around 45,000 from the small blind. Clinkscales made the call to put Segismundo at risk.

Rex Clinkscales Q♥ Q♠

Emmanuel Segismundo A♣ 6♣

The runout came K♥ 6♦ 4♦ 2♠ J♥ , giving Segismundo a pair of sixes, but it wasn’t enough to beat the ladies of Clinkscales, which secured the pot for him.

After shoving all in preflop and collecting the pot in the middle for twice, Cutis Freeze pushed all his chips in the middle and announced all in again from middle position .As previous two hands, this was followed by a string of folds from every player. Freeze collected the chips one more time and showed his ace-ten.

The action was picked up on a flop of J♠ T♣ Q♣ , where Ben Gur opened to 3,000 and Rex Clinkscales called from the big blind.

On the turn of 8♥ , Clinkscales checked, and Gur continued with a bet of 5,500, which Clinkscales called. The river brought the J♦ , and Clinkscales checked again. Gur bet 5,000, and Clinkscales made the call.

Gur showed 2♥ 7♣ , while Clinkscales revealed 9♦ 9♠ for the winning hand.
