Main Event (18,500 PHP)

Shoving for his last 27,400 from the +2 position is Baek Youngseok of Korea and folds all the way to the BB where another Korean in An Sangjin makes the call.

Baek tables A♠ Q♦ while An shows a live hand in K♥ J♦ .

The flop is safe for Baek: 3♥ 4♥ 2♦ but the turn card brings in the J♣ to give An the lead he would not relinquish as the 6♥ hits the river.

Baek is railed and An’s stack continues to grow.

Jeong Seonghun of Korea raises it 2,400 from the +1 position and gets a call from HJ, However, Hiroyuki Matsuzaki of Japan 3-bet shoves his remaining stack of 21,400 on the D and gets a 4-bet shove from another Korean in An Sangjin in the BB. Seong snap calls for his tournament life as the player in the HJ folds.

Matsuzaki turns over J♦ 8♦ while An shows 3♦ 3♠ . They’re both at a disadvantage against Jeong who tables Q♠ Q♣ .

That didn’t last long, though, as the flop goes 5♠ 3♥ 7♠ as An surges ahead with bottom set. The 9♦ on the turn gives the Japanese player a semblance of hope but the river card is the 2♠ to complete the bust outs of Matsuzaki and Seong as An now surpasses the century chip mark.
