Main Event (18,500 PHP)

Timothy Ferrari of the United States opens from UTG for 8,000 and it folds to the D where chip leader Ryuki Shirase 3-bets it 20,000. In the BB, Edgar Asehan of the Philippines 4-bets all-in for 114,000. Ferrari calls all-in for his last 107,000 while Shirase sees that this is the biggest pot of the tournament thus far and joins in.

Asehan tables J♣ J♠ while Ferrari has A♠ K♠ . Shirase is in bad shape with 9♣ 9♥ .

The runout goes Q♣ Q♠ 7♠ 2♥ 3♥ to give the Filipino a virtual triple up as Ferrari is eliminated and Shirase’s chip lead is not as imposing as it was prior to the start of this hand.
