Level 18 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Nang Quang Nguyen
Nang Quang Nguyen

Nang Quang Nguyen shoved from the button for 500,000 and was called by Lester Edoc in the big blind.

Nang Quang Nguyen: {q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}
Lester Edoc: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The flop came {10-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{6-Spades} for Nguyen to pick up the backdoor-straight draw.

The turn was the {j-Clubs} which meant Nguyen was now drawing dead as the river completed the board with the {3-Hearts} as a mere formality.

Nguyen was sent to the payout desk to collect ₱2,293,000 ($44,844) for finishing in third place.

There is a short break now as the table is being set up for heads-up play with just over 12 minutes left in the current level.

Campomanes Doesn't Get Called

Level 18 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

The flop came {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}, Edoc check-called the 100,000 continuation-bet of Campomanes.

The turn brought them the {a-Diamonds}, Edoc checked again and now Campomanes fired a bet of 325,000 over the line. Edoc folded. Campomanes looked disappointed and showed he held {j-Spades}{j-Hearts} for the flopped set of jacks. Edoc flipped over an {a-} to show the turned pair of aces.

Small Pot for Nguyen

Level 18 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Lester Edoc completed his small blind and Nang Quang Nguyen opted to check.

They both checked through the {5-Spades}{9-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} flop to the {j-Clubs} on the turn. Edoc bet 50,000 and Nguyen called.

The river completed the board with the {k-Diamonds}, Edoc bet another 50,000 into the pot and Nguyen called.

"Nine! Six plus three..." Edoc said before showing {6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} with a smile.

Nguyen laughed and tabled {7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} for two pair to claim the pot.
