On the flop A♦ 6♣ 2♣, Luke Pangan bet 30,000 and got a call from Paawan Bansal. On the turn 10♠, Pangan check-called (snap!) Bansal’s 46,000 bet. On the river 3♣, Pangan checked again and faced an all-in from Bansal for 102,000! Pangan tanked… and called!
Great call from Pangan, who called with 10♥ 5♥ beating Bansal’s 7♣ 2♥!
Our final eight is set! Bansal ends up in 9th place for PHP 334,700.
A hand after doubling-up with an improbable hit, Thomas Ward couldn’t do it again in what would be his final hand.
Ward: Q♦ 9♦
Yah Loon: K♠ Q♠
Flop: 8♥ K♥ 7♦
Turn: 3♠
River: 7♣
And our New Zealander is out of the main event in 10th place for PHP 281,800.
Le Ngok Khanh opened to 50,000 and Thomas Ward shoved his final 73,000. Easy call for Le.
Ward: K♥ 9♥
Le: K♣ J♠
Thomas Ward stays alive when the nine arrives on the flop 4♣ 9♣ A♥ and the turn/river 6♠ Q♥ confirmed his double up to about 150,000.
Paawan Bansal opened to 44,000 and Yao Hui reraised to 120,000. Bansal won’t commit just yet and gets away from this one.
From one of the short-stacked players entering the final table of 10 to one of the chip leaders: Weiyi Zhang.
Weiyi Zhang以较少筹码入局十人桌，但在以下回合之后将筹码翻番，坐上筹码王的宝座。
The Chinese opened to 50,000 preflop and got re-raised by Thomas Ward to 125,000 from across the table. Zhang moved all-in (total 601,000) and Ward called!
中国选手Zhang Weiyi 在翻牌前下注50,000得到新西兰选手Thomas Ward的再次加注到125,000，随后Zhang All In:601,000,Ward 跟注
Zhang: K♥ K♣
Ward: Q♠ Q♦
Ward was in a world of trouble, needing a lady to win this hand and none came on the board A♦ 4♥ 7♣ 8♦ 4♠ to put the Kiwi in a world of hurt, and down to less than 100,000. Zhang climbs to over 1.2M.
公共牌 A♦ 4♥ 7♣ 8♦ 4♠对双方底牌都无实质性帮助，最后Zhang以手牌胜出，筹码返回逾一百二十万。
On a board of 3♥ 9♦ 10♣ 3♦, SJ Kim check-raised Yah Loon’s 45,000 bet to 115,000. Loon called and the dealer put the river 10♥
Both checked, Kim showed K♥ J♣ and Yah Loon tabled 7♥ 7♣– good enough to win the pot.
Yao Hui opened 50,000 preflop and saw SJ Kim re-raise to 120,000. Hui called to bring the flop 9♠ J♦ J♣. Hui check-called Kim’s 115,000 bet and both checked the turn 7♥ and river 10♣.
Hui showed 8♦ 8♠ for the straight and Kim mucked his hand.
Facing a 50,000 raise from Jun Javalera, Paawan Bansal re-raised to 152,000 total– or all of his chips. Javalera called to put Bansal at risk:
Javalera: A♣ K♦
Bansal: A♠ 10♠
Bansal needed a ten to survive and it came on the turn on the board Q♦ Q♣ 4♠ 10♣ 8♥.
Bansal doubles through, to 320,000 or so.
