Main Event (18,500 PHP)

Jung Whan Kim shoved for 95,000 from the hijack and received calls from Emanuel Florendo in the small blind and a player in the big blind. The flop came 2♣ J♣ 5♣ and Florendo bet 125,000, forcing out the big blind and leaving Kim at risk.

Kim only had three outs against Florendo’s pair of jacks and after failing to find an ace on the 3♥ 7♠ runout he was eliminated while Florendo took the pot.

Jung Whan Kim shoved from the hijack for 140,000 and Ryutaro Yamamoto called from the small blind with a covering stack to put Kim at risk.

Kim was dominated but the 2♦ T♥ 9♦ 6♥ Q♠ runout gave him a pair of nines for the unlikely double.

Seoha Lee opened to 18,000 from the cutoff, Jung Whan Kim three-bet to 68,000 from the button and Lee four-bet shoved with a covering stack from the cutoff. Kim, who had 172,000 behind, used two time banks before folding and Lee took the pot without having to see a flop, showing A♦ K♥ as he did so.
