Main Event (18,500 PHP)

The action gets folded to the CO where Roland Don Ferrer of the Philippines raises it to 1,600. Vietnam’s Le Vu makes the call from the D but then it gets to the Sb where Kohei Suzuki of Japan shoves his dwindling stack of 4,900. Ferrer and Le call.

The flop goes T♥ 4♣ A♠ as Ferrer checks. Le leads out for 4,300 and gets called by Ferrer as a side pot now brews. The turn is the 8♥ as once again the Filipino checks. Le then goes all-in for his remaining 19,000. Ferrer folds.

The main pot now has Suzuki showing K♠ Q♥ for a gutshot straight draw on the flop while Le has A♦ Q♣ for top pair on the flop that becomes trip on the river as the A♣ arrives.

Le’s trips ousts the Japanese player.
