#35 Freezeout (30,000 PHP)

Local runner Roland Ferrer booked a thrilling finish at the Freezeout side event, overcoming a field of 17 entries to bag a career first trophy win. Only four players cashed in on the PHP 445,230 prize pool, with Joon Han Lee falling short in 5th place after committing his last 15 big blinds with deuces, only to come up short against Yues Thalman's pocket queens.

Ferrer the shortest amongst the remaining four, worked his way to land a spot in the final showdown against Minsoo Hwang, where the two decided on an ICM deal. Hwang was guaranteed a larger share of PHP 160,000 while Ferrer settled for a slightly lesser PHP 152,230 payout, along with a chance to claim the trophy left up for grabs. In the end, Ferrer emerged victorious with the final hand

seeing him limp call Hwang's 5 BB jam with Q♦ 5♦ . Hwang was slightly ahead with K♦ 4♠ , but was denied a second series victory as the board 5♥ 7♥ 8♠ A♣ T♥ landed Ferrer a pair, enough to take the win.
