APT Main Event (36,000,000 VND)

It folded around to Shane Pearce in the small-blind who opened into Bannawich Thongwigitr's big-blind. The Thai player responded with a three-bet which was called by the Australian. The flop came down Q♠ J♦ J♣ , the small-blind checked and Thongwigitr bet 3,500. Pearce raised to 11,000 which the big-blind called.

The turn brought the T♣ and faster than a cheetah on caffeine Pearce jammed all-in for 28,000. The Thai player did allow himself some time before he made the call.

Shane Pearce: A♥ J♥

Bannawich Thongwigitr: A♠ K♣

The river 8♠ did not help Pearce who steamed off the table, saying he should have ripped it on the flop. You better not allow your opponent to hit their 9% equity if you want to stay alive.

Deepankur Gupta opened the button to 800 and Pearce Shane called from the small blind.

Both read the A♦ 8♠ J♠ flop, and Shane checked the action to Gupta, who then bet 800. Shane stuck around.

The 3♦ hit on the turn, where Shane checked over again and Gupta fired 5,000, sending Shane into the tank. After over 1 minute, Shane open mucked his pocket sevens, and Gupta friendly showed an A♠ for a flopped pair.
