APT Main Event (36,000,000 VND)

It folded around to Chunhui Ji on the button who opened to 8,000. Nang Quang Nguyen in the big-blind put the pressure on with a three-bet to 34,000. Knowing how aggressive Quang Nguyen can be. Ji responded with a four-bet to 89,000. Nguyen called and a massive pot was brewing.

The flop came down J♠ T♠ 2♣ , which both players checked. On the 4♥ turn Nguyen put out a massive bet of 180,000. Ji called, leaving himself around 210,000 behind.

The river came the spicy A♦ and Nguyen moved all-in, covering Ji. The Chinese player was in a very tough spot with the money bubble nearing quickly, and Nguyen's aggressive image. After multiple minutes, eventually, he decided to call.

Chunhui Ji: T♥ 9♣

Nang Quang Nguyen: J♦ T♦

It has to be said, there was controversy as to whether the T♥ 9♣ were Ji's cards, as he threw his cards into the muck, and the dealer had to choose which cards to pick after Nguyen tabled his two pair. Ji confirmed those were his cards, leaving the table in disbelief.

It folded around to Minjae Kwon on the button who opened to 1,700. The Chinese player, Chunhui Ji, seated next to him, three-bet to 6,500 and Kwon called.

On a board of K♣ 4♠ 2♦ Ji continued with a 3,700 continuation bet. Kwon, who started the hand with around 35,000, called.

The turn brought the 9♦ and Ji did not slow down, instead he made it 11,000 which was enough pressure for Kwon to fold his hand.
