Main Event (45,000 PHP)

Mike Takayama raised all-in on the cutoff and saw Joseph Magnotti call off for a slightly lesser 41,000 right on the big blind.

A crucial flip, Magnotti dodged a bullet, having spiked a set on board A♠ 8♠ 2♦ T♣ Q♠ to survive through.

Mike Takayama committed his last 10,700 preflop and was looked up by initial raiser Bernard Vu for a pocket pair battle.

Takayama in rough shape, exited the arena after failing to improve on board A♦ T♣ 6♥ 5♦ 9♦ .

Akihiro Kawaguchi defended his big blind against Mike Takayama's 1,000 cutoff open, and check called another 1,500 on flop 4♥ A♠ 8♥ . On turn 7♠ , Takayama went for 3,000, enough to get Kawaguchi to lay it down.
