APT Main Event (60,000 PHP)

Lawrence Wong opened to 1,600 under the gun and quickly faced a three-bet to 4,000 from Jeong Yu, two seats over. Wong responded with a four-bet to 12,000, but Yu wasn’t backing down—he five-bet to 26,000. Having had enough, Wong shoved all-in, and Yu snap-called for his tournament life.

Jeong Yu: A♥ A♣

Lawrence Wong: K♣ K♠

The dealer fanned out K♥ J♠ Q♥ , prompting an elated fist pump from Wong as he spiked a set. However, the turn T♠ sent a wave of sympathy through the table as Yu’s Broadway straight turned the tide.

Just as Yu sighed in relief, the river K♦ landed, sending the table into a stunned chorus of “Wow!”

Yu stood frozen in disbelief before quietly exiting, while Wong, still in shock, raked in the massive pot.
