Jung Ho Young’s bad timing shove ends in 5th place – Php 1,263,000 (~US$ 22,228)

Heavy preflop action kicked off with cutoff Hernan Villa raising to 120k, button Jung Ho Young called, then David Erquiage three-bet a stack of oranges amounting to 500k. Villa folded but Young slid out the orange tower to match. On the flop 10♥ 2♠ 7♠, Erquiaga checked, Young jammed, and was snap-called by Erquiaga.

Young Q♣ 8♣
Erquiaga 10♠ 10♣

Young was in a world of hurt, needing to land a lucky backdoor straight but not the case with the turn K♠ and river 6♦. Young was eliminated in 5th place to earn Php 1,263,000 (~US$ 22,228) for his largest ever tournament career cash. Erquiaga zoomed to 4.8M and is currently the race leader.
