NLH - 15/10/5 (10,000 PHP)

One of the fastest games in the menu was the NLH 15/10/5 with the blinds escalating rapidly and the action clock adding pressure. Only 16 took interest with four players claiming a piece of the Php 136,576 (~$2,350) pot. At three-handed, big stacked Martin Astorga and Michael Calunsod went head to head. Astorga's 4♥ 4♦ prevailed over A♠ Q♣ to amass a monstrous lead entering heads up. It was no contest with Nikolai Babushkin sitting on just 2 bigs to meet the rail on the first hand.
