Big Movements in the APOY Race
Joining the action on the 
turn, Euryd Rivera and Sparrow Cheung invested 15,000 each to see the 
appear on the turn. Rivera bet 15,000 and Cheung asked to see the stack of his opponent. He then took some time before moving all in for more than 60,000 and Rivera took equally long to call it off for slightly less.
Euryd Rivera: 
Sparrow Cheung: 
The 
river was a blank and Rivera was eliminated.
Over on table one, a costly misstep may have put fellow Asian Player of the Year contender Pete Chen at a disadvantage against Cheung. In a raising war, Chen faced a three-bet to 12,200 by Segundo Barte and eventually put the Filipino at risk.
Segundo Barte: 
Pete Chen: 
The board came 
and the pair of queens held up. "How much is it?" Chen asked and his eyes grew bigger when Barte's stack was counted to be for 142,200, a hugeportion of Chen's stack.
