Main Event (16,500 NTD)

When the action gets folded to Hsiao Hao Wen in the small blind, 3,500 enter the middle, followed by a 13,000 three-bet from Gary Tan in the big blind. Wen fills up to see the flop T♠ T♣ T♥ and check calls 18,600 with 8♥ 8♠ after Gary Tan jams with A♦ J♥ . The dealer barely misses the underdog twice with Q♦ and 9♣ to grant Hsiao Hao Wen a double up.

With a 1,500 raise from CO, Gary Tan takes both blinds to the flop 2♦ T♠ Q♠ where a 2,000 c-bet takes us heads up with Cai Weiruo on the button to see the turn T♣ . A second barrel of 5,000 finds another call for the river 6♥ which has Gary Tan announce all-in to end the hand without a showdown.

First to act Cai Weiruo kicks of the action with a 1,200 raise and takes HJ, BU and the SB to the flop 7♠ 6♣ 2♠ . Checked to HJ Hu Chung I, a tiny 900 lead goes into the middle, followed by a call from Gary Tan on the button and a check raise to 3,300 from SB Hin Ng. Only Gary Tan elects to call for the turn 7♣ where he matches another 6,000 from his opponent to complete the board K♣ . Hin Ng tries to figure out how to extract max value with 6♥ 6♦ full house, lands on 18,000 and Gary Tan pays off and mucks.
