Main Event (45,000 PHP)

Donghyun Kim open shoved 53,000 on the hijack and was tank called by Suya Lee two seats after.

A 50-50 spot, Kim's pocket pair held on board 4♦ 2♦ 7♠ 4♣ A♦ , earning him a double up right on bubble time.

Chang Gi Choi opened 14,000 utg and was joined by three callers onto flop J♦ 9♣ A♥ . Choi continued for 25,000, called by both David Ang and Suya Lee on the small blind. On turn 6♦ , Choi gunned for another 45,000, this time check called only by Lee.

Lee checked a third time around on river 2♥ , convincing Choi to take his top pair A♦ K♥ to showdown. Lee revealed a better two pair A♣ 6♣ and shipped the hefty pot his way to reclaim the lead.

Suya Lee and Alexander Ugay had clashed at least three times since the break, with Lee coming out on top in every pot. After folding to a river bet on the board 8♦ 6♠ 5♦ J♦ T♥, where Lee showed Q♠ Q♣ , Ugay found himself up against the Korean once again.

This time, Ugay was ahead with pocket jacks for his remaining chips, but Lee's momentum proved unstoppable as the board ran out in favor of his jack-ten suited, eliminating Ugay from the race entirely.
