Main Event (18,500 PHP)

Taiwan’s Chen Sing-Wen opens from the CO for 2,500 and gets called by a pair of Japanese players in Hajime Murase from the D and Hirohisa Tanaka from the BB.

The flop is Q♣ 6♠ 9♥ as it gets checked to Murase who bets 3,000. Both his opponents call. The turn is the 5♣ and once again it is checked to Murase who once again unloads, this time for 7,000. Again, he gets called by both. The river is the 7♠ and this time, Tanaka goes all-in for his last 18,900. Chen folds but Murase goes into the tank and subsequently opts to let it go.
