Dela Cruz Jams Into Teck

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Three ways to the 984 flop, Gerald Foo bet 1,100. Eric Teck made it 3,300 to go and Ruderico Dela Cruz reraised to 10,300. Foo let go whereas Teck reluctantly called. That brought them to the 5 turn on which Teck checked. Dela Cruz pushed near instantly to force a fold.

Costiniano Gets Paid With Quads

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
John Costiniano
John Costiniano

On a completed board of 62275, Feras Elnatsha checked out of the blinds. John Costiniano overbet for 27,300 into a pot of just 9,500 and that sent his opponent deep into the tank.

Elnatsha eventually paid it off and Costiniano revealed the 22 for flopped quads. Elnatsha mucked the A and lost a significant portion of his big stack.

Bortfeld Knocks Out Lee

Level 3 : 100/300, 300 ante

Following an under-the-gun raise by Kevin Bortfeld, a shorter-stacked Junhui Lee jammed for what appeared to be around 7,000 with Bortfeld coming along.

Junhui Lee: KQ
Kevin Bortfeld :J9

"I am ahead? Let's go," Lee joked. The K65 flop brought a sweat and while Lee stayed ahead on the 2 turn, the A river completed a flush for Bortfeld.

Vu No More After Clash With Watanabe

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Bernard Vu
Bernard Vu

A big pot was brewing to the Q32K turn when Bernard Vu bet 6,900 into what appeared to be 15,400. He had previously clashed with Hajime Watanabe, who was his opponent once more and jammed for 19,000.

Vu went into the tank and inquired with the floor if it was possible to re-enter before he called with slightly more chips.

Hajime Watanabe: 33
Bernard Vu: AK

The K river was a formality already as Vu hit the rail shortly after and before the tournament went on break.-

Hagio Out and Back In

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

The cards were already on their backs with Namiki Hagio all-in and at risk holding the AQ.

Hyung Tai Kim looked them up with the A2 and hit running spades on the 1042Q8 board. Hagio re-entered soon after to table 47 as all three available tournament areas at Okada Manila are now in play.
