APT Main Event (55,000 TWD)

Methuz Kaewsaikao began the action with a 2,000 raise from the hijack. Chung Yi Ho responded with a 7,000 three-bet from the button. After the blinds folded, Kaewsaikao called.

After the 5♣ T♣ J♦ flop came down, Kaewsaikao checked and Ho bet 6,000. Kaewsaikao pondered for a minute before shoving for around 40,000. Ho called and they flipped their cards.

Methuz Kaewsaikao: J♥ T♠

Chung Yi Ho: 5♦ 5♠

Kaewsaikao's two pair was out-flopped by Ho's set, and he needed some help from the dealer to keep his tournament dreams alive. Ultimately, the dealer turned over K♠ 8♥ , and Ho's set held up. "GGs" Kaewsaikao remarked as he fist bumped Ho and left the venue.
