Pansier Raises the Turn; Yea Gets Big Double

Level 21 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Joonhee "Steve" Yea
Joonhee "Steve" Yea

Three ways to the J644 turn, Norbert Koh invested 65,000 but quickly folded to a raise by Nino Pansier while Florencio Campomanes also got out of the way as well. Despite losing this pot, Koh has a very comfortable big stack and that also applies to Steve Yea one table over.

Kevin Clemot had been the one to suffer as Yea doubled through him in a large pot. According to Clemot, he "made a big mistake" and three-bet too small to then get it in via check-shove on a Kx9x5x7 turn when a second spade appeared. Yea happily called with the 86 for the nuts and the AxKx of Clemot had zero equity.

Iargo Guimaraes
Iargo Guimaraes

Ivan Tabucal already celebrated even before the cards were turned over when he was all-in against two opponents including Iargo Sebastian and Joseph Talamayan.

"Aces ... aces again," he declared almost in ecstasy and once the side and main pot was cleared, it was also certain he had Sebastian covered by a small margin as well.

Joseph Talamayan: A5
Iargo Sebastian: 99
Ivan Tabucal: AA

The board ran out J436K and Tabucal screamed out his victory with the words "nuts nuts".

Lijun Zhang

The field on Day 2 is starting to dwindle as only 47 players remain spread across six tables. Last woman standing here in Manila was once more Lijun Zhang who bowed out in 49th place, while Czardy Rivera then busted soon after.

It appears that the penultimate tournament day will conclude at either the end of level 23 or 24 but no official announcement has been made yet.
