Vietnam's Dat Ngo Van Cruises Through Flight C to Finish Top of the Pack
PostedJust nowby Life of Poker - Kai
Dat Ngo Van
Vietnam's own Dat Ngo Van topped the counts in Flight C of the APT Main Event by bagging up an impressive stack of 328,000 to take into battle in tomorrow's Day 2. There were 66 survivors from the 136 entries (107 unique) that will join the 140 that qualified from Flights A & B with Flight D still to play out.
Jhon Hendri, who came sixth in last night's Superstar Challenge, bagged the second biggest stack of the day with 247,900 with Japan's Naoto Takeya in third bringing through a stack of 202,400.
Hyeokki Lee managed to bag up 182,300 in his pursuit of a first APT title. Lee was involved in a lot of pots today with a big hand going his way when he held king-five which turned a flush against the top pair of Abhinav Iyer's jack-eight.

Two-time APT title holder Dennis Koon found a bag for Day 2 and brings through 123,800 chips in his Main Event Quest. Koon won a High Roller event last year right here in Hanoi for VND 1,033,390,000 and won a Deepstack Turbo event in Phu Quoc just a few months prior for VND 76,630,000.
Former Main Event champion Hai Nam Hoang brings through a stack of 80,400 as he looks to repeat his victory from Hanoi earlier in the year. Hoang seemed to be cruising along and would have bagged a bigger stack but his flopped set fell short to the turned straight of countrymate Hong Quan Nguyen in the later stages of the day.
Other notables to make it through were Mai Bien (91,100), Daniel Brugman (88,700), Duy Anh Nguyen (82,900), Vincent Li (73,600), Joshua Mccully (60,100), Sofia Lovgren Fullmer (52,500), and Alan Pham (26,000).

Ngo Van Dat Hits Zheng on Last Hand
PostedJust nowby Noel Zarate
With their table playing the sixth and final hand of the day, an unraised pot turned ugly for China's Tian Hao Zheng.
With five players in the hand, the flop went: T♦ 8♦ 5♦.
Vietnam's Ngo Van Dat--one of the chip leaders--led out after the blinds had checked to him in early position. Zheng called from the cutoff.
The turn was the A♠ as Ngo checked and Zheng fired 15,000. Ngo called.
The river brought in the 9♦. This time Ngo bet 45,000. Zheng made the quick call.
Ngo turned over A♦ K♠--the nut flush on the river. Zheng quickly mucked his hand.
Zheng is back down to around the starting stack of 30,000 while the win put Ngo past the 300,000 mark and appears to be the overall chip leader for this flight.
Parthasarathi Outdrawn and Busted by Park
PostedJust nowby Noel Zarate
What looked to be the makings of a family pot as four limpers came in, Park Hyunkyou of Korea raised to 7,000 from the Dealer Button position.
The initial limpers folded except for former APT Main Event winner Shardul Parthasarathi of India who 4-bet all in for 31,000 from middle position.
Park was in the tank until someone called the clock on him and decided to call.
Parthasarathi tabled A♣ J♥ while to everyone's surprise, Park showed T♥ 9♥.
The first four community cards were harmless to the Indian: 8♣ 5♣ 2♣ 8♠ but then the 9♦ arrived on the river and sent Parthasarathi to the rail.
Final Six Hands

Superstar Challenge Champion Pham Doubles Through Brugman
PostedJust nowby Life of Poker - Kai
Fresh off of his Superstar Challenge victory last night, Alan Pham is playing Flight C of the APT Main Event and has managed to find a double-up in the last level of play.
Pham got his A♥ Kh: in pre-flop against Daniel Brugman's A♠ Q♠ and flopped a king on the 8♥ 5♣ K♠ 9♠ 6♦ to boost his stack up to 50,000.
Name | Chip Count |
---|---|
Daniel Brugman | 90,000 |
Alan Pham | 50,000 |
Chhikara Ends Pun's Run
PostedJust nowby Noel Zarate
India's Himanshu Chhikara stood his ground against a 3-bet shove from Allan Pun of China, but as he called he realized he only had live cards as his K♦ J♦ was behind against Pun's A♣ T♦.
The flop, however, changed everything: J♠ 6♠ 4♠ as Chhikara was now ahead with top pair.
The turn and river blanked out as Pun, who was crippled in his very first hand a valiantly fought his way back to nearly the starting stack, has been waylaid.
Last Level of the Day
PostedJust nowby Life of Poker - Kai
Level ten has just begun which means in less than 30 minutes all remaining players will bag up their stacks and bring them forward into Day 2, which will play out tomorrow.
There are still 76 players with chips in front of them from the 135 entries that have been recorded so far.
Hoang Takes a Dent
PostedJust nowby Life of Poker - Kai
Hai Nam Hoang
It's been business as usual for Hai Nam Hoang today as his stack was sitting healthily at around 100,000, but it just took a dent as fellow Vietnamese player Hong Quan Nguyen doubled through the former APT Main Event winner.
Both players got their stacks in pre-flop with Hoang holding 7♥ 7♠ and Nguyen with K♦ T♦.
Despite flopping a set, Hoang would lose the hand to the turned straight of Nguyen as the board ran 9♣ 7♦ J♣ 8♥ 4♥.
Name | Chip Count |
---|---|
Hai Nam Hoang | 70,000 |
Hong Quan Nguyen | 55,000 |
Big Slick of Chhikara Taken Down
PostedJust nowby Life of Poker - Kai
India's Himanshu Chhikara had Tse Ian Lee at risk holding A♠ K♠ against the A♣ Q♠ of his opponent.
Chhikara was in a great spot to eliminate Lee and looked likely to do so after the J♣ J♥ 5♥ flop but a Q♦ on the turn tilted the odds in the Malaysian's favor. The river 8♣ locked up the pot for Lee and earned him a double-up, with Chhikara not too impressed that he had to count out over 40,000 chips and slide them over to his opponent.
Name | Chip Count |
---|---|
Tse Ian Lee | 90,000 |
Himanshu Chhikara | 30,000 |
