APT Main Event (55,000 TWD)

Martin Sedlak raised to 900 from under the gun and Yukako Hiroi three-bet to 2,800 in the cutoff, which Sedlak four-bet to 6,800. The female player didn’t step down and made the call quickly.

However, right before the dealer dealt the flop, Sedlak tossed his cards into the muck and released the four-bet pot.

Hiroi turned over her K♦ K♣ with a smail before returning it to dealer.

A flop ran out A♥ T♦ Q♥ with around 9,000 chips in the middle, and Yukako Hiroi checked over from the small blind. Alan Pham also tapped the table in the big blind.

The 4♦ hit on the turn, where Hiroi fired a barrel of 6,000 and Pham called.

When a 7♥ fell on the river, Hiroi checked over to Pham, who then bet out 13,000 and was snap-called by his opponent.

Pham tabled A♠ 9♠ for a top pair of aces, however it couldn’t face off against Hiroi’s higher kicker with A♦ J♦ .
