Yuri Odagiri

Yuri Odagiri cracked aces for her stack to reach 145,000, having one of the biggest stacks of the day so far.

In her last hand, she three-bet preflop to 6,500, and called her opponent's four-bet to 14,500.

The flop came {q-Hearts}{k-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, and Odagiri snap called her opponent's shove for 15,000, as she was holding {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} for top two pair. Her opponent's aces were outflopped and she kept her lead after the {2-Spades} on the turn, and the {7-Diamonds} on the river.

Showdown at the OK-ada Corral

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

A player opened and Seongsu Kong called. Christopher Mateo then moved all in, supposedly blind. The initial raiser folded and Kong implored his opponent to show him a card.

Mateo did so, showing the {a-Spades} before turning it face down again. Kong now asked him to show the second card.

"10,000!" said Kong. "20,000!" and Mateo asked to see the money.

Kong reached into his pocket but could only muster roughly ₱1,600.

Eventually Kong also flashed the {a-Hearts}. A short while later Kong folded.

Mateo then showed his {3-Clubs} and Kong laughed, slamming the table.

The floor then approached the table and dished out two-hand penalties to both players.

"Ok," said Kong. "Smoking time!"

Kang Finds Huge Double Up

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Seungmin Kang took a lot of chips out of Eran Shaham's stack, after he managed to double-up with a full house.

The board was reading {3-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} with Kang already all in and Shaham in the tank. Kang's shove was for 33,300 in a 70,000-chip pot, and Shaham eventually called.

He instantly mucked when Kang opened {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades} for a flopped set that turned into a full house, and he is now up to 137,000 in chips. Even after this pot, Shaham is still up to 120,000 in chips.
