Main Event (18,500 PHP)

Jonald Garica of the Philippines opens from the LJ for 2,500 and gets called on the D and from the BB by England’s Jonathan Pickering.

The flop comes A♣ K♦ 7♦ as Pickering checks. Garcia CBets for 3,000 as the player in the D folds but the Englishman makes the call. It is Heads-Up to the turn which shows the K♠ and this time, both players check. The river is the T♥ as Pickering checks a third time and the Filipino goes all-in and gets the snap call from Pickering.

Garcia shows A♠ Q♣ for top pair on the flop while Pickering has K♣ T♦ for a full house on the river as his sneaky double up send Garcia’s stack to emergency levels.
