On just the third hand of the final 8 came the first casualty. Action opened with utg player Thijs Hilberts raising to 50k, acting next was Ahmed Ibrahimi who three-bet to 145k, back to Hilberts with a four-bet all in, snap-called by Ibrahimi.
Hilberts J♦ J♣
Ibrahimi A♠ K♥
The board ran well for Ibrahimi Q♦ K♠ A♣ 5♦ K♣ to crush Hilberts pair. Hilberts exited in 8th place for Php 387,300.
