Yu Lun Huang

The final hands of this event were a back-and-forth battle between Yu Lun Huang and her opponent Rosalie Petit. With stacks of similar value, each blind battle could tilt the balance one way or the other without either player pulling significantly ahead.

In the last hand, Petit opened for 180,000, and Huang defended.

The flop came 3 J 4 , and Huang check-raised to 350,000. She was called by Petit.

On the 2 turn, Huang took the initiative and put 450,000 into the pot. Petit shoved all-in, and Huang, after burning a time bank, decided to call.

Yu Lun Huang: 7 T

Rosalie Petit: J J

Huang could only hope to hit a diamond to save her stack.

But the 8 on the river sealed the match, and Huang was eliminated in second place. Thanks to an ICM deal, she collected a prize of TWD 756,900 (~USD 24,100).
