The remaining players are heading on a 15-minute break.
2014 World Series of Poker Asia-Pacific
Level: 3
Blinds: 150/300
Ante: 0
The cards are back in the air.
On the final hand before the break a big pot developed with the board reading ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
.
Victor Teng checked and Tien Pham bet 3,500 with Jonathan Duhamel calling. Teng then opted to check-raise to 15,000 as Pham called all in for slightly less before Duhamel folded.
Pham tabled his ![]()
for a straight, but it would be Teng's ![]()
that would see him eliminated Pham while simultaneously moving his stack to 112,000 - good enough for the big chip lead.

Following two limps, Jeff Madsen raised the hijack to 1,125 before Vincent Rubianes three-bet the button to 2,550. The limpers folded, but Madsen called before check-calling 3,000 on the ![]()
![]()
flop.
The turn landed the
and Madsen checked to Rubianes who went into the tank for several minutes - with time eventually being called - before he moved all in for 12,150.
Madsen folded and slipped to just under 13,000 as Rubianes climbed to roughly 25,000 in chips.

Alexander Antonios and Steven Zhou, who finished as champion and third-place finisher of WSOP APAC Event #7: $2,200 Six-Max No-Limit Hold'em respectively, are at it again. The duo are currently seated at the same table, and much like they were two days ago, they're mixing it up with one another.
In a recent hand, we picked up the action with 2,100 in the pot and a board reading ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
. Zhou checked from the big blind and Antonios bet 1,150 from early position. A third player in middle position folded, and Zhou snap-called. Antonios rolled over the ![]()
for a straight, and it was good as Zhou sent his cards to the muck.

Lauri Pesonen lost about two third of his starting stack and Aik-Chuan Nee was reduced to even less before getting in his last 3,600 chips with
against the
of Victor Teng. The latter could not improve on the
board and the Malaysian sat down again.

Michael O'Grady raised to 700 from under the gun and got one caller before Vanessa Rousso three-bet to 2,600 from middle position. The action folded back to O'Grady and made it 10,000 to go, which scared off the cold-caller. Rousso moved all in for just above 15,000 in chips and O'Grady called.
Rousso:
O'Grady:
The
flop was a disaster for Rousso and she needed one of the two remaining kings or running diamonds to double up. The
on the turn left two outs and the
on the river shipped the pot to O'Grady.
