Mike Takayama

Philippine poker superstar Mike Takayama just catches the last registration bus for Day 1C and immediately doubles up after Singapore's Giam Jian Hui shoved from the +2 for his last 24,500. Takayama, with a fresh starting stack, calls.

Giam flips over K♠ 7♠ while Takayama shows 3♦ 3♥

The flop is 2♥ 3♠ A♠ giving the Filipino a set but the nut flush draw for the Singaporean.

The turn card is the 6♣ while the river yielded the K♦ .

Giam can still join the ongoing Day 1D for a few more opportunities to advance.
