Raising from UTG to 2,200, Terry Gonzaga of the Philippines initially draws three callers in fellow Filipino Flo Campomanes (HJ), Cheng Lungchi (CO) of Taiwan and Singapore's Andre Cherbonnier (SB). However former Pokerstars Live Manila Special Main Event champion Joemark Vasay re-raised all-in from the BB for 12,100. Gonzaga 4-bet all-in himself and loses his callers to go heads up against his fellow Filipino.

Vasay turns over A♦ Q♣ while Gonzaga shows a made hand in Q♥ Q♦ .

The first three community cards are 3♣ 2♣ 4♦ , a bit of a sweat for Gonzaga.

The turn card, though, was the A♣ to give Vasay a lead that he would not relinquish as the T♥ arrives on the river.

Vasay gets his much needed double up while Gonzaga will have to resume grinding again with less than 30 BBs.

Korean Yoo Gyeong Tae figured in a preflop raise-fest against Filipino veteran Terry Gonzaga as both player table their hands.

Gonzaga shows A♦ Q♠ while Yoo has 8♣ 8♠ .

The runout goes 7♠ 5♥ J♥ 6♠ T♣ and provides no help for the Filipino.

Yoo doubles up.
