HomeMike Takayama of the Philippines bet 600 preflop and was met by Korean Lim Yo Hwan, who is also known as “BoXer” during his heydays as a StarCraft pro.
The Filipino continued with a 1,000 bet on the flop 4♥ J♦ 7♠ but the Korean just wouldn’t go away and made the call.
Turn 6♥ arrived and this time Takayama just checked. Hwan fired 1,500 only to see Takayama go over the top shoving his final 8,500.
The Korean tanked and tanked… but eventually folded his hand.
