David Erquiaga has 210k and according to him, he doubled up his 100k stack against APT champion Czardy Rivera. Erquiaga had pocket aces, Rivera with pocket kings, board bricked. Rivera plummeted to 2k then busted.
Robert Uy
Robert Uy got the best of Julien Weymouth. We only caught the action at the shipping. Weymouth had Q-10 top pair that didn’t improve to the river. Uy had pocket sixes that found a friend on the flop. Uy up to 400k. From what we heard, prior to this hand, a bigger pot went down between them that doubled up Uy and Weymouth in the red.
A pot of 15k was formed preflop between two players, Jessie Leonarez and Khao Kah Hock. At the flop K♣ 6♠ J♦, Khao bet 10k, Leonarez raised to 30k, Khao called. On the turn 8♠, check by Khao, Leonarez shoved, called by Khao.
Khao J♥ 6♥ two pair
Leonarez A♣ K♠ top pair
The river 5♦ didn’t improve Leonarez, he busted. Khao rose to 270k.
Mai Anh
Mai Anh is giving the boys a beating at her table. She carries the dominating stack of 280k after scooping up a big pot. Catching the action on the flop 3♥ 7♦ 6♦ and 16k in the middle, Wooh Yun Yang checked, Anh bet 13k, Yang called. On the turn J♠, same action with a 15k bet called by Yang. The river 7♥ both checked, Anh showed K♥ K♣, Yang 8♦ 8♣.
Plenty of action preflop led to two players all in, William Ysmael and Tom Alner. Alner was the at-risk player with A♥ K♠, Ysmael had 10♠ 10♣. The board immediately granted the higher pair running K♥ 8♠ 4♦ 2♥ 6♥. Alner up to 90k.
Lester Edoc
Bang bang! The only player to win a back-to-back APT Philippines Main Event was Lester Edoc in 2018. Edoc is in fine form here. He has been on the rise since he sat down and now holds the commanding chip lead with 375k. He shipped a huge pot by knocking out two players. It was all in preflop:
Edoc A♠ A♦
John Beveridge A♥ K♥
Vamerdino Magsakay A♣ K♦
The board 10♥ 9♠ Q♥ Q♦ 10♣.
