MAIN EVENT ($1,320)

Facing an utg open from chip leader Khayal Abbasov, Jeorge Lagatuz decided to take the aggressive route and shove his entire 925,000 from the small blind. Unfortunately for him, Abbasov was ready to pounce with a premium pair, putting the Filipino at risk.

Board 7♥ 9♣ 6♠ 4♥ 4♦ offered Lagatuz no salvation, leaving him to exit as the final table bubble while Abbasov further extended his lead.

Jeorge Lagatuz defended his big blind against chip leader Khayal Abbasov's cutoff open, and faced a 90,000 cbet from the aggressor on flop 9♦ 2♣ 3♣ . Lagatuz responded with a check raise to 400,000, pushing Abbasov out of the pot after giving it some consideration.

Folded down to the button, Jeorge Lagatuz open raised all-in and saw Tomas Dedinas risk his tournament life - 250,000 with 7♦ 7♠ on the small blind. Unfortunately for the day chip leader, Lagatuz had a better 8♠ 8♣ and easily ended his Main Event run across board 4♥ 5♥ 6♥ 5♣ T♠ .

Ku Ghee Peow opened utg and was quickly met with a 60,000 raise from seatmate Jeorge Lagatuz. Peow decided to pad the pot further to 122,000 and was priced in to call after Lagatuz moved all-in for 217,000 total.

Lagatuz well ahead, smooth sailed to victory on board T♠ 7♦ K♣ 4♣ 8♦ , pocketing the big boost at the expense of Peow.
