Main Event (45,000 PHP)

Fumiyoshi Makino has been on a roll, and recently delivered two eliminations, leaving only 24 runners standing. Play will arrive at a halt once 18 players remain.

Roland Ferrer opened mid position, followed by a raise from Fumiyoshi Makino on the small blind. Patrick Wahlquist on the big blind stuffed his last 37,500 in the middle, pushing Ferrer to come back with a bigger shove to isolate. Makino however, woke up with a premium hand and snap called for a three way showdown.

Board 7♦ K♠ T♥ 2♥ 6♥ was a slam dunk win for Makino, earning him the hefty pot with top set while Wahlquist headed out the door.

Up against an open and a call, Roland Ferrer shot out a three bet to 16,000 on the small blind and saw only Naohiro Matsuda complete.

Action checked to turn 4♣ 2♣ 4♦ Q♣ , where Ferrer led for 25,000. Matsuda shot down his hopes of the pot and shipped the win to his Filipino opponent.

David Deltreuilh defended his big blind against Roland Ferrer's 2,800 hijack open, and check raised his opponent's 3,500 cbet to 9,100 on flop 2♠ 7♠ 5♠ . Ferrer continued to turn 2♥ , and called Deltreuilh's 16,700 all-in for a showdown.

Deltreuilh J♠ 4♠

Ferrer A♠ T♣

Up against a completed flush, Ferrer booked the loss shortly after river K♥ missed to deliver a fourth spade.

Vying for a pot of 23,800 on a turn board of Q♥ 5♥ 2♥ 3♣ , three way action saw John Maklouf lead all-in for his last 9,300. Roland Ferrer gladly made the call with a completed flush 9♥ 6♥ , putting Maklouf at risk with Q♣ J♥ .

River 7♥ rolled a fourth heart, offering Maklouf a better flush along with a second life to continue on.
