Sathesh Muthu Eliminated in 2nd Place (PHP2,140,000)
Sathesh Muthu faced a raise to 50,000 by Peter Plater and called out of the big blind. The flop fell 
and Muthu checked. Plater bet 100,000 and Muthu check-raised all in to see Plater ask for a count. The shove was for a total of 326,000 and Plater called to create the following showdown:
Sathesh Muthu: 
Peter Plater: 
Muthu was away ahead with his over pair and open-ended straight draw, while Plater needed a seven or jack. That situation changed slightly with the 
turn, as Muthu had top set all of a sudden and Plater needed a five for a chop and a ten for the victory. Fellow Aussie Brian McAllister on the rail predicted the ten and sure enough the 
river improved Plater to a jack-high straight.
After winning his seat in the PHP33,000 satellite yesterday, Plater turned that into a payday of PHP3,100,000 while Muthu had to settle for second place and PHP2,140,000 (~$42,475).
A recap of today's action is to follow shortly.
