The final table of the APT Poker Room Inaugural Tournament has taken off at the Casino Filipino, Waterfront Manila Pavilion with the last 10 players looking to bag the top cash prize of PHP104,500 plus a $2,200 APT Philippines Main Event seat.
Chip leader Randy Boone with his 2,328,000 chips is the man everyone is looking to chunk down but instead, Boone deals a quick first casualty by eliminating Rommel Angeles in 10th place with his A♦ Q♣ besting Angeles’s A-J offsuit.
Not long after that Emmanuel Segismundo railed Abraham Ang in 9th place with his 5♥ 6♦ landing two pairs against Ang’s A-2 offsuit.
Next one to fall early was Kristian Faering in 8th place against Dave Erquiaga. Erquiaga landed a set with his 9♣ 9♠ against Faering’s K♥ 10♥.
The fall of the short stacks continued with Domingo Ylanan settling for 7th place when his A♣ 8♦ fell short against Segismundo’s A♠ Q♣.
With 6 players left, action began to slow down a bit. Good luck to the remaining players!
