APT Main Event (36,000,000 VND)

Van Dan Nguyen opend the cut-off with a bet of 2,500 to be called by Charles Pansoy on the button. Jia Han Lin, however, had other things in mind and decided to raise the heat by three-betting to 8,500. Both Nguyen and Pansoy called to see a flop.

The flop came down 3♦ T♥ 9♠ , and Lin led out with a bet of 7,500. Nguyen folded, but Pansoy applied pressure with a raise to 15,000. Lin gave him a perplexed look before making the call.

Both players checked the turn A♥ . Then, on the 2♠ river, Lin fired out 22,800. Pansoy separated 22,800 from his stack and considered his action, shuffling his chips thoughtfully. He then carefully set aside another 22,800, making it a raise to 45,600.

Lin went into the tank, visibly struggling to piece together what Pansoy might be holding. After a long pause, he reluctantly folded. Pansoy showed the T♦ and asked, "Two pair—good?" Lin stayed quiet, shaking his head.
