APT Philippines 2015

In the very first hand of the Final Table, Sahil Agarwal doubled up through Julius Malzanini in a pre-flop shove battle.

Agarwal: A♣ 9♣
Malzanini: 10♦ J♦

The flop K♠ 10♣ Q♦ gave Malzanini the lead and he Agarwal’s one foot was out the door with the turn 7♠.

Howver, the river J♠ landed giving the player from India the straight. Agarwal doubles up to around 190,000– the ideal start for a short stack in this final day.
