Wong Makes Move on Takayama and Busts

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Yap Sen Wong
Yap Sen Wong

It was a classic small blind versus big blind confrontation, where Mike Takayama opened to 80,000, and Yap Sen Wong re-raised to 240,000. Takayama continued with a five-bet to 500,000, and Wong announced all in after some tanking. Takayama snap-called, and Wong's reaction proved that he knew he was in a bad shape after his opponent's quick call.

Takayama: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Wong: {a-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}

The board ran out {j-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}, and Wong was out of the tournament.

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Mansour Khorramshahi
Mansour Khorramshahi

Khorramshahi is the first casualty in the final two tables of the Main Event. In his last hand, he open-shoved under-the-gun for six big blinds, Tianhong Su called from one seat on his left, and Florencio Campomanes was in the big blind, announcing his own all in, with 1.2 million in total. Su got out of the way and they went to showdown.

Mansour Khorramshahi: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Florencio Campomanes: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

The board ran out {8-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}, and even though Khorramshahi picked up many outs on the turn, he didn't manage to spike anything, and hit the rail.

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Tianhong Su
Tianhong Su

Tianong Su was left with 12 big blinds, and he put them in the middle from the small blind after Florencio Campomanes' raise from the cutoff. Campomanes called and they were off to a race.

Florencio Campomanes: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Tianhong Su: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

Su found a great flop with the {4-Spades}{6-Spades}{8-Hearts} giving him top set, and leaving Campomanes with runner-runner outs to threaten him. Unfortunately for Su, this is exactly what happened, since the {k-Spades} on the turn, and the {7-Spades} on the river, gave a flush to Campomanes, and sent Su to the rail.

Hao Chen Eliminated in 11th Place (₱709,000; $13,732)

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Hao Chen
Hao Chen

Hao Chen opened to 230,000 and Duc Trung Vu three-bet all in for 1,830,000. Chen called with {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} and was up against the {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} of his opponent.

There was a king on the {3-Spades}{2-Hearts}{k-Clubs} flop giving Vu the lead. The turn was the {q-Spades} and the river the {10-Diamonds} leaving Chen with just 145,000.

That went in on the next hand with {k-Spades}{10-Spades} and was called by Mike Takayama who had three-bet to force the other players out of the hand.

Takayama showed {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} and held on the {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} runout to add a small amount to his stack.

Chuttani and Caabay in the Latter's Elimination

A big hand took place in the final table bubble, that ended up with the elimination of Raymond Caabay, sending the rest of the players in the final table. Caabay opened was first to act and opened to 250,000, and Sahil Chuttani defended from the big blind.

The flop came {7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{a-Spades}, and check-called a bet for 180,000 from Caabay.

The turn was the {4-Diamonds}, and Caabay this time announced all in, after Chuttani's second check. Caabay's stack was 1.3 million, and Chuttani took a long time before announcing the call, to create a big pot, and put his opponent to risk.

Sahil Chuttani: {a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}
Raymond Caabay: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}

Caabay had gone with the semi-bluff on the turn, and he still had outs to hit a flush, and double up. The {5-Hearts} on the river wasn't one of them, and Caabay was eliminated in the final table bubble.

There is a redraw for the final nine players, and play will resume after a short break.
