TMT Championship 2024 Mini Main Final 9 Players

Here we go! It's the final table of the TMT Championship 2024 Mini Main (NT$ 3M GTD)!


Seats have been re-drawn, which can maybe change the strategies and fortunes of the players. But one thing is for sure, the poker gods don't lie. Cards will fall where they may and whatever happens, happens. That's poker!


Yu Yung Lin enters the final table as the chip leader, leading Day 2 most of the way. The last thing to do now is to make it all the way until the end. Of course, that's easier said than done.

Level 27: 50,000 / 100,000 ante: 100,000
Cianyou Huang - 11th Place

Chan Chun Wai made the min-raise to 200,000 from under the gun. Cianyou Huang called all-in for his last 165,000 and the big blind completed the 200,000. All three were shown a flop of A K 2. Both checked to see 4 turn. Lo checked and folded when Wai fired 200,000. Wai and Huang made the final showdown. When they showed their cards, Wai had a two-pair and Huang was drawing dead. The river 3 was inconsequential. Cianyou Huang finished at 11th.

Lo Cheng Yen

After some re-raise wrestling, Lo Ching Yen pushed 445,000 all-in from the hi-jack and Tsz Lo matched with a call.


Lo Chin Yeng beamed when his kings flopped a set, but began to tear when Tsz Lo turned a Broadway straight. The tears continued for Yeng when the river offered no help from the poker gods to end his run.
