Superstar Challenge - Final Day

Vamerdino Magsakay

Hand 46

Vamerdino Magsakay made it 425,000 and Joseph Cheong shoved. Magsakay called off his remaining few chips.

Vamerdino Magsakay: 9♦ 7♦

Joseph Cheong: K♦ 9♣

Cheong had his man right where he wanted him, and was a runout away from clinching the title. The flop of 7♥ 5♠ K♠ gave both players a pair, but it was Cheong who still held the lead.

A 5♦ on the turn was no help to Magsakay, who only had two outs to survive, but he couldn't find either of them as the 4♠ completed the runout, which meant Magsakay was eliminated in second.
