Kickoff (16,500 PHP)

Harish Asnani flicked in his last 33,000 and faced initial raiser Jester Intia's pocket pair for a flip.

Asnani missed to pair up on board 6♦ 2♠ 5♣ 9♣ A♠ , busting him out three places shy of the money.

Harish Asnani opened 23,000 on the hijack and called off Lloyd Locsin's button jam for 109,000 total.

Locsin in rough shape, turned the tables around as board Q♦ 7♥ J♦ 3♥ 4♣ landed him a pair to snag the win away.

With 29 players left holding on to their seats, that means the day is about to close with 9 more eliminations to go before is reached. 20 players are set to advance to Day 2, joining yesterday's 10-survivor qualifier list.

Chip Counts

Harish Kumar Asnani raised 700 vs a limp and was called by three other players behind. Utg limper Feridoun Farboud bumped it up to 3,700, pushing only the big blind off the action. On flop 4♥ Q♠ 3♣ , Farboud led for 10,000, followed with an all-in for his last 14,300 on turn 2♥ .

Asnani called to showdown with top pair Q♣ T♣ and was crushed to see his opponent table overpair K♥ K♣ . River A♥ made no difference, shipping Farboud the double up his way.
