Warm-up (5,000 PHP)

The Philippines’ Roland Don Ferrer raises from UTG to 2,400 and gets callers in the blinds as Korea’s Kim Kunwoo joins in from the SB and Norihisa Zaitsu is also in from the BB.

The flop comes Q♥ J♦ 9♦ as Kim check and Zaitsu check. Ferrer continues for 3,600 as Kim calls. However, Zaitsu check-raises it to 8,500. Ferrer calls but the Korean 3-bets all-in for his last 25,200. The move elicits a fold from the player from Japan. Ferrer makes the call.

Kim shows A♦ 4♦ for the nut flush draw while the Filipino is delighted to learn he is ahead with K♠ Q♣ for top pair and a gutshot straight draw.

The turn is the 6♥ and the river is the T♣ as Ferrer completes the straight he didn’t need and busts Kim in the process.
