Main Event (18,500 PHP)

With a pot of already 86,000 and a board that reads 8♣ K♦ 2♦ 9♦ Kevin Mateo of the Philippines checks his option in SB as Korea’s Shim Heungsub puts in his last stack of chips worth 57,000. The Filipino gives it a think and eventually calls.

Shim tables K♠ J♣ while Mateo is behind with T♠ T♥ . The river card is the 6♣ and just like that Mateo’s stack falls considerably and is on the respirator. Shim enters the double century category.
