Kevin Ang min-raises from the button (small blind) to 200,000, and Tetsuya Tsuchikawa (pictured above) calls from the big blind.
The flop comes [7d6c3s], Tsuchikawa checks, Ang bets 160,000, and Tsuchikawa check-raises to 410,000. Ang calls.
The turn card is the [Ah], Tsuchikawa bets 475,000, and Ang calls.
The river card is the [Qs], Tsuchikawa checks, and Ang moves all in. Tsuchikawa thinks for a short while before he calls, and Ang shows [8d6h] for a pair of sixes.
But Tsuchikawa turns over [10s7s] to win the pot — and the first-ever WPT National Philippines title — with a pair of sevens.
Kevin Ang finishes as the runner-up, earning $109,794.
Tetsuya Tsuchikawa wins the WPT National Philippines, earning $158,849, a trophy, and a pair of Monster DNA Headphones.
