From the button, Louiejohn Princesa raises 24,000 and gets some action from the big blind defender Rene Mar David. They proceed to check it to the turn 3♣ 8♦ Q♠ 6♣ where David leads out 30,000 that's called by Princesa. The river then comes 4♣ , David checks, Princesa bets 87,000, David let's go of his hand.

Galvez is drawing for a flush to survive but with the turn 6♠ and river 3♥ , his wish is not answered and goes bust.

Youngseok Baek opens from early position and goes hunting at the flop with two callers. When the board felts T♦ 5♣ 3♠ , it is checked to Rene Mar David who test-bets 28,000. Big blind folds while Baek calls. The turn 3♥ and river A♥ bring no action. Baek shows T♣ J♣ top pair at the flop and it's good to rake it in.

Benhur Ybarsabal kicks off the hand with a 12,000 raise that's called by the blinds, Vijayn Singh and Edgar Asehan. They proceed to check the flop with action resuming on the turn board 8♥ 5♠ 6♣ 8♣ . Singh leads out 15,000 and only Ybarsabal challenges with a raise to 45,000. Singh quickly gives it up.
