Dhanesh Chainani Leads Record-Breaking APT Taipei Main Event Final Table
PostedJust nowby Life of Poker - Jonas
Dhanesh Chainani
The record-breaking APT Taipei Main Event APT Taipei Main Event has reached the final table with Singapore's Dhanesh Chainani holding the chip lead going into the final day of play after he bagged up 118,300,000 chips. From the 1,991 entries, just nine remain in their quest to take home the monstrous TWD 14,413,200 (~$449,070) winner's purse and the title of the biggest and richest international poker tournament ever to play out in Taiwan.
There were 47 players that started the penultimate day and it took less than eight levels of play to reach the final nine with a lot of action in between. Several high-profile players were still in contention at the start of the day with Hong Kong's Tsz Him Chan (46th), Daniel Neilson (44th), Dominik Nitsche (26th), Konstantin Held (25th), Dylan Foster (19th), and Natural8 ambassador Eric Ting Yi "Six Poker" Tsai (17th) all failing to make the final table.
Chainani, who started the day with close to two million chips, consistently improved his stack throughout the day. A failed river bluff by Keigo Kubo against Chainani's straight as well as a winning with 9♣ 9♠ against McManus' A♥ J♠ with only two tables left were among the most memorable hands that helped him to secure the chip lead going into the final table. For the Singaporean, it will be his 22nd APT final table. An impressive number! But no doubt, this will be the biggest one of his career.
Abraham Ceesvin
Following him second in chips will be his fellow countryman Abraham Ceesvin, winner of APT Korea 2023 Event #2 Single Day Highroller. After finishing day 3 as the chip leader he could uphold his hot run in this tournament in day 4 and will be bringing 13,750,000 chips to the final table.
Chih Wei Fan
Taiwan's Chih Wei Fan sits fourth in counts with 8,500,00 in chips. He will be trying to win his second APT trophy in this series after winning the APT Superstar Challenge for TWD 8,590,525. Wei is closely followed by Day 1D chip leader Jae Wook Shin with 8,325,000 chips. The final table will resume with 39 minutes left to play in blind level 32 with the blinds being 100,000/200,000.

The board displayed 9♣ J♥ 7♠ 3♠ T♠ eliminating Wu, in the process making the final table for the APT Main Event.
Next Round Coming
PostedJust nowby Life of Poker - Gabby
With action folded to Ting Hao Wu at the button , he decided to choose this spot to jam his chips with Q♦ 7♠. Current chip leader Dhanesh Chainani with J♦ 9♠ at the big blind made the call knowing that the call will have a chance to eliminate and will also not make a dent to his chipstack.
The board A♣ Q♣ 4♦ 6♦ 8♦ gave Wu a much needed double up. With a positive attitude, Wu scooped up his chips and announced that the next round will be coming.
Postflop Action on Final Table Bubble
PostedJust nowby Life of Poker - Jonas
In this exciting hand Chih Wei Fan opened from the button and got called by Man Lok Chan in the big-blind. The flop came T♣ 7♥ 4♠ and the action took it's course.
First, Chan checked to Fan who put out a continuation-bet of 325,000. This was answered by Chan with a raise to 900,000. After spending some time in the tank, Fan in turn put out a three-bet of 2,200,000, leaving himself around 3,700,000 behind. This was enough to make Chan fold and for Fan to chip up nicely shortly before the final table.
Name | Chip Count |

Man Lok Chan | 9,500,000 |
Chih Wei Fan | 8,000,000 |

Nguyen Trung Quan
Man Lok Chan woke up with cowboys K♠ K♣ at cut-off after action was folded to him and opened for 325,000. Nguyen Trung Quan, unknowing what he was about to run into, three-bet 900,000 with his A♥ J♥ at the button. The blinds got out of the way and action went back to Chan who put the pressure by making a four-bet of 1,800,000. Quan jammed his chips and got a snap call from Chan.
The flop unfurled 4♠ 9♣ T♥ . The turn 8♠ gave at-risk player Quan some outs but the 3♣ river ended it for him.
Wu’s King Stands
PostedJust nowby Life of Poker - Zoe
Dhanesh Chainani raised to 325,000 from the hijack, which only Ting Hao Wu and Junichi Hashimoto called from the button and the big blind respectively.
The Q♦ 4♣ 8♠ flop rolled off before Hashimoto checked the action to Chainani who bet 500,000. Wu and Hashimoto stuck around.
Hashimoto and Chainani checked after seeing a 9♦ fall on the turn to which Wu fired 875,000, and Hashimoto made the call, but Chainani folded. As the 4♠ slid on the river, Hashimoto check-called after Wu bet 1,750,000.
Ting Hao Wu K♣ Q♥
Junichi Hashimoto Q♣ J♠
Wu’s king definitely did a good job on this hand as he tabled king-queen against Hashimoto’s queen-jack.
