Nikolas Rivera Takes Overall Lead At Flight C

Level 19: 5,000 / 10,000 ante: 10,000
Nikolas Rivera

Flight C of the Okada Micro is a wrap! At the top of the counts was Nikolas Rivera who steadily climbed the ranks throughout the day, trailing behind young gun Maxwell Rosete as the bubble round approached.


Rivera eventually surged ahead after bursting the bubble, eliminating Bumyeol Lee to overtake and finish as flight leader with 532,000 in chips. This not only put him at the top of the Day 2 qualifiers list but also set the benchmark for the ongoing final flight. Rosete was very close behind, bagging an equally strong 524,000 for second in chips.


Flight C drew the largest turnout of 158 entries, and when combined with the two earlier flights, it easily surpassed the PHP 1M guarantee. From this flight, 19 players advanced to the ITM round.


Flight A: 115 entries / 14 qualifiers

Flight B: 121 entries / 15 qualifiers

Flight C: 158 entries / 19 qualifiers


Buy-in: PHP 4500 (~$80)

Guarantee: PHP 1,000,000 (~$17,500)

Drazen Taroma Doubles Up

Level 14: 1,500 / 3,000 ante: 3,000

Drazen Taroma three-bets all in for 34,0000 and Seung Hyun Han calls with his big stack. When their hole cards are shown, it's a flip with Han needing to connect to avoid paying up.
