Warm-up (5,000 PHP)

With the action folded to the D of Korea’s Kang Myeonghwa, he open shoves but gets called on the BB of Filipino Raymond Enriquez who is at risk with his last 54,000.

However, Enriquez likes his chances when Kang turns over A♣ 8♦ against his A♦ J♦ .

True enough, the runout made it official for the Filipino: 9♠ 2♣ 5♣ 3♥ 7♠ . Enriquez gets his much coveted double up and sends Kang’s stack spiraling to dangerously low levels.

India’s Acharya Anant opens from UTG for 5,500 but right beside him in the +1 position, Rodrigo Enriquez of the Philippines 3-bet shoves his remaining 16,500. Folded to the D, American Timothy Ferrari isolates with a 4-bet shove, forcing Anant out of the hand.

Enriquez unfurls K♦ K♣ while Ferrari shows A♠ J♥ .

The Filipino successfully avoids any complications in his double up attempt: 9♥ 3♣ 4♥ 2♠ 4♦ .

The loss, however, sinks Ferrari’s stack to below 15,000.
