Saifah ChanpanyaSaifah Chanpanya opened to 100,000 from under the gun and after action folded around, Shoumin Zhang in the big blind shoved all in for around 3,800,000, definitely covering what Chanpanya had. It didn't really take that long before Chanpanya called, putting his tournament life on the line.
Saifah Chanpanya: T♠ T♣
Shoumin Zhang: A♦ K♠
After the cards were tabled, Chanpanya got on his feet and started praying for his hand to hold, and sure enough it did through the board, which ran 4♠ 3♣ 2♠ 9♥ 3♠. Chanpanya, relieved, sat back down and scooped the pot towards his direction.

Moments later, Wei Zhu departed the tournament area. He had jammed a seven-short stack with Ax 4x and was called by Saifah Chanpanya with A♦ K♦.

Chih Wei Fan is among the top ten heading into Day 4From a record-setting field of 1,393 entries, only 47 players remain heading into the penultimate day of the APT Incheon 2026 Main Event.
The largest share of the KRW 3,008,540,000 (~USD 2,148,960) prize pool is still up for grabs, with the top three finishers also receiving seats to the 2026 APT Championship Main Event in Taiwan this November. Only the eventual champion, however, will leave with the APT Gold Lion Trophy and the KRW 523,720,000 (~USD 374,085) top prize.
Play resumes at 11:15 a.m. local time inside the luxurious Paradise City Casino Resort, with Japan’s Shinichiro Kano leading the remaining field with a bag of 3,050,000 chips. China’s Zhentao Long sits only three big blinds behind with 2,965,000.

Kano finished fourth in the APT Taipei 2025 Main Event and will be hoping to go all the way this time. Fellow former APT Taipei Main Event finalist Chih Wei Fan is another player to watch after bagging 1,720,000.
Three years ago, the Taiwanese professional was involved in one of the most memorable hands in modern APT history when he six-bet jammed with ace-five. Punnat Punsri snap-called with pocket aces, sending Fan from second in chips to a seventh-place finish before the Thai All-Time Money List leader went on to claim the title.
Fan has since added victories in the APT Taipei Poker Classic 2024 Superstar Challenge and the APT Taipei 2025 Baby Superstar Challenge, leaving little doubt about his ability to compete on the tour’s biggest stages.
Another Thai player returning inside the top ten needs little introduction. DeepRun co-founder Phachara Wongwichit is aiming to move beyond USD 3 million in live tournament earnings with a deep run and enters Day 4 in ninth place with 1,835,000.
Wongwichit already owns an APT signature title after winning the APT Taipei 2023 High Roller and now has an opportunity to add the Gold Lion to his collection.
Longtime chip leader Peng Chen has maintained his position near the top and returns with 2,280,000, worth 76 big blinds when play resumes.
Never to be underestimated is Malaysian professional Chin Wei “Webster” Lim, who sits comfortably in the middle of the field with 1,255,000.
Takeru Endo returns with 1,180,000, while recent WSOP Millionaire Maker finalist Yifu He has 1,010,000. Toni Ravnak carries 985,000 into Day 4 during his first APT appearance, with Daming Kang on 755,000 and Jun Li holding 615,000.
Among the shorter stacks is Ireland’s Toby Joyce, winner of the 2025 APT Championship High Roller Championship. Joyce has 705,000 chips at his disposal, along with perhaps the most flamboyant outfit remaining in the field.
Toby JoyceWhen play resumes, there will be 42 minutes remaining in Level 25, with blinds of 15,000-30,000 and a 30,000 big blind ante. Every player still in contention has already secured at least KRW 8,630,000 (~USD 6,165).
Reaching the nine-handed final table would guarantee each survivor at least KRW 38,580,000 (~USD 27,560) and a place in the live-streamed conclusion on August 15.
Levels will remain 60 minutes long, with play continuing until the final nine are set. All the action will be available on the APT blog, while the APT YouTube channel will provide cards-up coverage with commentary on a 30-minute security delay.
Be sure to follow the live updates throughout the day for all the action directly from the tournament floor.
