#9 PS High Roller Open (8-Handed) (33,000 NT$)
A remarkable feat indeed, defending PS Main Event champion Lai Hsuan Yu once again found success at this season's games with an early victory at the PS High Roller Open. Yu entered the Final Day with the lead and came as no surprise as he remained in contention up until the final duel.
While Yu kicked off heads up play against Chan Man Lok with a 2:1 deficit, Yu fought tirelessly for the win, ultimately striking a deal following a two-hour back and forth. Yu was guaranteed NT$ 677,100 in winnings while Chan took home NT$ 650,600, leaving the PS rose gold trophy and prestige to play for. In the end, it was Yu who clinched the win, earning a third PS under his name as the final hand saw his A♦ 5♣ hold strong against Chan's Q♦ 4♠ .
