The bust outs are coming thick and fast now and the final table is now down to four. It was Mike Takayama the man thinning the field, opening the action with a raise to 150,000 from under-the-gun and Korea��s Jaehyun Lim moved all-in for around 900,000 in total. Takayama called immediately and the cards were revealed.

Mike Takayama: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Jaehyun Lim: {q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

Lim was the at-risk player and Takayama held the best hand which improved even further when the flop fell {7-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} to give the Filipino top two pairs, though Lim had gutshot straight outs.

The {2-Hearts} turn saw these outs reduced slightly as Takayama picked up a backdoor heart draw and the {k-Diamonds} river saw the hometown hero improve to a full house and he stacked up to 3,550,000 while Lim headed for the cash desk to collect the equivalent of $29,792.
