Main Event (18,500 PHP)

Junj Javalera opened to 1,500 from under the gun, was called by Man Chung Tsui in the hijack and a player in the big blind. The flop came Q♦ 2♦ 7♣ , Javalera bet 4,400, Tsui called and the big blind folded. Javalera continued for 12,000 on the T♠ turn. Tsui moved all in with a covering stack and Javalera, who had 19,200 behind, made the call for his tournament life.

Junj Javalera: A♥ Q♥

Man Chung Tsui: Q♠ 4♠

Javalera was in great shape to double up with top pair and the superior kicker but the 4♣ river gave Tsui two pair to send Javalera to the rail.
