The big blind Jong Hyun Song calls for a flop 5♥ 8♣ 4♣ where Rivera barrels another 30,000 that Song calls.

Howard Lee raises all in 140,000 from under the gun and is in big trouble when Harsh Asnani calls wit A♠ A♦ . Luckily for Lee, the board had naughty plans as it ran 7♠ 5♥ Q♦ 7♣ Q♥ giving Lee quads to chunk down Asnani to 3 bb.

Steven Chua looked down at K♠ Q♠ and decided it was time to go up or go bust. He shoved his last 69,000 and got called by Jun Beum Chun with A♥ 9♦ . The flop paired up Chua then turned it to a runner runner J♥ 6♠ Q♦ Q♣ K♣ full house for the double up.

Action folds around to the small blind Ramon Roces who open shoves his last 47,000. Big blind Joemark Vasay calls.

Randy Cirineo is down to just 7 bb and finds the moment to risk it with A♦ 4♦ at cutoff. Next to him is Youngchang Choi who call and has the better kicker with A♥ 9♥. With the flop running 5♥ A♣ 3♣ K♠ 9♦ , Cho pairs both cards to deny the split.

Action folds to the small blind Nash Dela Cruz who tries to steal for 30,000 but gets called by the big blind Christian Relucio with A♦ 4♦ . Cruz sheepishly shows 9♥ 3♦ that misses the board completely 2♠ 7♦ 7♠ 2♦ 4♥ .

On a raised pot preflop that built 16,500, Jun Beum Chun and Justine Talaroc went head to head at the flop T♣ 7♣ 7♦ where Talaroc jammed overpot of 30,000 and Chun snap-called.

Talaroc had 8♣ 5♣ , Chun was also drawing for clubs with A♣ 9♣ . The turn 4♥ and river Q♥ changed nothing for Chun to ship it and Talaroc to ship out.
