Fabian GumzFabian Gumz opened to 5,000 from cutoff. When action folded to the big blind, Sean Ooi defended with a three-bet to 14,000. Having other plans, Gumz four-bet to 39,000. Ooi called to see the flop.
The flop came 2♣ 7♦ 4♦. Ooi passed the action to Gumz, who fired 18,000. With action back at him, Ooi tried to get control of the pot with a 45,000 raise. But Gumz refused to let go. He three-bet to 77,000 sending Ooi to the tank.
Ooi was deep in thought taking his time to decide what to do next. Two time cards were burned before he announced all-in for around 280,000. Gumz snap-called putting himself at risk as he headed to showdown.
Fabian Gumz: A♣ A♥
Sean Ooi: 9♥ 9♠
Gumz's rockets held when the dealer peeled the J♥ turn. And with the 7♥ river, Gumz scored a double.

The turn produced a J♠ and after action was passed to him, Margereson added another 11,000 to the pot. Kosasih called, leading them to the river.
It dropped A♥. Kosasih checked once again, triggering Margereson to fatten the pot further with a 41,000 bet. The big blind player went into the tank needing to burn a time card to think things through.
He made the call. Margereson tabled 5♣ 5♠. Kosasih then turned over A♠ Q♣ for a pair on the river. After seeing the winning hand, Fritz commented, "I folded A♣ Q♠. That would have been fun."

Rudy Edenata Former APT High Roller ChampionRudy Edenata made history in February 2026, becoming the first Indonesian player to win an APT Mega Lion title when he claimed the APT High Roller at APT Jeju. Now, back on the idyllic island, Edenata is once again hunting for another lion to add to his pride.
At the time of his breakthrough victory, Edenata was still a relative newcomer to the game. “I’ve only been playing poker for six months. Mostly tournaments. I rarely play cash games. Since I started playing tournaments six months ago, this trophy means a lot to me. It gives me more confidence for my next tournament. I want to study more and keep playing,” he said after his win.
He followed that first major breakthrough with a clear determination to keep learning and improving. Reflecting on the significance of the victory, he added, “I feel very happy because this is my first big tournament. I have about four trophies, but they’re from small events. This is the biggest event I’ve ever played.”
Rudy EdenataHe has certainly backed those words up. Since then, Edenata has established himself as a regular presence on final tables across Asia’s poker circuit, collecting trophies and steadily building a name for himself along the way.
His rise has been steep, to say the least. Once a relative newcomer to the live poker scene, Edenata’s rapid ascent has seen him shed the “newbie” tag and emerge as one of Indonesia’s most accomplished tournament players.
He has continued to make deep runs across the region, adding numerous titles and final-table finishes to his résumé. His live tournament earnings have now climbed to $821,733, placing him fourth on Indonesia’s all-time money list.
And while his journey is far from over, Edenata has come a long way from the player who arrived in Jeju with just six months of tournament experience and a handful of small-event trophies.
Now, he is back where his rise to prominence began - with another APT lion in his sights.
Yuhan Liu raised to 2,500 from under the gun and Punnat Punsri made the sole call from the big blind.
Punsri check-called Liu's 2,500 continuation-bet following the 7♥ 7♣ 8♥ flop, before both checked the 4♥ turn to the 4♦ river. Punsri placed a 25,000-chip bet in the middle and took down the pot.
A couple of hands later, Punsri opened from the button to 2,500 and big blind Toby Joyce called, before check-folding to Punsri's 2,000 bet on the A♦ 2♦ 7♣ flop.
Punsri then opened once more, this time from the cutoff, and found two callers in button Liu and big blind Daniel Neilson.
The entire 3♠ Q♠ Q♣ T♥ 2♥ runout was checked through, with Neilson flicking over 6♣ 2♣, seemingly good for the pot.
