Nam Le Wins!
1 year ago
Nam Le is the High Roller champ. He pushed around Andrew Scott until he'd built a 9-1 chip lead and then bet enought to commit Scott when he looked down at king high.
Scott made the call with J
T
and would need to catch against Le's K
2
.
The flop fell K
J
6
and while Scott grabbed some additional outs on the A
turn, the 9
river wasn't one of them.
Scott takes $269,230 for second while Le grabs the the title, the $474,358 first place prize and all the glory.
A full recap of the final table should be up here before the night is through.

Level 19: Fight!
1 year ago
We're into the 19th level here and Nam Le is continually putting the pressure on Andrew Scott heads-up.
He now sits with $900,000 to Scott's $300,000 and it could all be over soon.

Do Done (Third)
1 year ago
Quinn Do is out after Andrew Scott hit a three-outer on him. The two got in a raising war pre-flop that culminated with Scott talking himself into shoving on Do and Quinn making the call for his tournament life with pocket tens.
Scott had A
T
and when the Q
8
6
flop fell, any hopes of a heart flush fell with them. But, when the A
turned, it was Quinn who would need the case ten to survive.
The river was the K
and Do heads out third, cashing $153,846.
Now it'll be up to Nam Le and his $790,000 to take on Scott and his $435,000 for the High Roller title.

Chucky's Dead (Fourth)
1 year ago
Charles Chua's amazing run here in Macau is finally over. After making second in the main event just days ago he'll cash $115,384 for fourth here, having failed to get past Nam Le.
Nam raised, he reraised and Nam shipped it on him. Chua made the call with pocket jacks, but Le had the queens and the queens held on a A
7
3
A
2
board.
It took a lot of luck for Chua to get this far, but he showed a little poker chops as well and even the jaded crew at PL.com was impressed. Good luck Chuck.
Now three-handed, Nam has a huge lead with $785k to Quinn Do's $250k and Andrew Scott's $185k.

Charles Chua has doubled through Nam Le to take a chunk out of his chip lead here in Macau.
He shoved pocket queens and Nam looked him up with A
K
. The board ran out 9

3
5
6

Meanwhile, Le still leads with $490,000 and Andrew Scott and Quinn Do are bringing up the rear with around $200k apiece.

D-oh!
1 year ago
Quinn Do just made a huge mistake trying to bully Charles Chua off a pot. He raised pre-flop and Chua fired back, Quinn flatted and the flop came 6
5
3
.
It only took a second before Do shoved in. Chua made the quick call for his tournament life with K
K
, picking off Do's T
9
bluff.
The turn and river, as if it mattered, came A
J
, giving Chucky the flush and the double.
Do is now the short stack on $120k and has only himself to blame.
