APT Main Event (36,000,000 VND)

Action was picked up with Dinh Tien Thanh open-jamming all-in for 520,000 in the hijack for his tournament life, and Deepankur Gupta called from the small blind.

Dinh Tien Thanh: A♠ 3♦

Deepankur Gupta: K♦ K♣

Thanh hit a pair on the flop K♥ A♣ 2♣ , but Gupta caught a set, evoking an exasperated groan from Thanh. He immediately stood up, seemingly resigned to his fate.

The turn K♠ only worsened Thanh’s situation, giving Gupta quads and effectively sealing Thanh's elimination.

The inconsequential river 4♠ was dealt, confirming his exit from the tournament.

Dinh Tien Thanh peeked into pocket queens from under the gun and made a min-raise when Nang Quang Nguyen re-popped to 110,000 from the next seat with an A♦ 8♦ .

Thanh took another peek at his Q♠ Q♥ , threw in a few time-bank cards, wondered if a samurai sword would be efficient against zombies, then just made the call.

The flop came 8♣ 2♠ 3♠ which both checked to reveal a J♣ on the turn.

Thanh then fired all-in for 387,000.

Nguyen went into some deep breathing meditation while chucking some time-bank tokens, before also chucking his cards to the muck.
