Hong Pham
We didn't catch all the action, but the chips of Hao Wu were at risk on the turn with a board that showed 5 Q 6 9
Hong Pham made the call.
Hao Wu: K 7
Hong Pham: 9 9
Wu had a flush draw, while Pham had a set.
Wu needed a miracle on the river, but the poker gods threw down a 6 to award Pham the juicy pot, while eliminating Wu.
Incidentally, the demure-looking Hong Pham from the United Kingdom has over USD 523,000 in total live earnings and was crowned as the Main Event champion of the UK Poker Championships by GGPoker for a career best cash of USD 16,348 earlier this January.
It's her first time showing up for the Asian Poker Tour.
