HomePreflop all-in once again. Joseph Sia was at risk with A♦ 5♠ and was up against Frank Acfalle Jr. with pocket sevens.
Sia need any ace to survive!
Dealer boarded the flop 8♦ 4♦ J♠ turn 8♠ and river 10♦ and Sia is out of this tourney. Acfalle gains some back after losing some to Mandeep Narang and he’s back to over 460,000 in chips at this point.
Mandeep Narang is going deep into this main event .
With 10♦ J♦ he shoved his stack worth around 160,000 and got a caller from Frank Acfalle Jr. who called with 7♦ 7♠.
The flop J♠ 10♠ 9♦ gave Narang the overpair although it provided new outs for Acfalle Jr.
Turn 6♣ and river 3♣ blanked though and Narang gains the nice double-up to 350,000. Acfalle Jr. drops to around 300,000 or so.
Lee Je Hoon shoved his stack just around 100K or so with Q♣ Q♦ but Franklin Acfalle Jr had an even better hand: K♦ K♥
Hoon needed to hit his two-outer to survive and the flop 5♠ 9♥ 5♦ did not provide any additional help. No lady on the turn 7♠ and river A♦ and Hoon gets the boot.
No crying for Hoon though who earns a cool PHP 174,000 from this main event.
Acfalle Junior climbs to over 450,000 after this bust-out.

And before the re-draw or the Final 18, Srinivas Polishetty of India doubled-up off Lester Edoc.
Polishetty did pull off the minor miracle when his A♣ 7♣ beat Edoc’s A♦ J♣ on a board of 2♠ 7♠ 7♦ J♦ 6♣.
Jerry Lai of Malaysia opened to 34,000 preflop but saw Mike Takayama of the Philippines re-raise shove with around 200,000.
Lai tanked for a bit but eventually made the call.
Takayama: 10♣ 10♦
Lai: Q♣ Q♥
Flop K♥ 6♥ K♦ was of no help to the Filipino and the turn 6♣ and river 9♣ made his ouster official. Takayama settles for 19th place and PHP 139,000.
Preflop, Martin Rottem Dahle shoved his stack worth around 70,000. He found a caller from Craig Sloan.
Sloan: J♠ J♥
Dahle: K♥ J♣
Dahle needed some sort of miracle and the board 3♠ 4♥ 8♥ 4♦ 9♣ wasn’t feeling very generous in this hand and Dahel from New Zealand gets the boot.
Craig climbs to over 600,000 after this hand.
