Japanese players dominate the main event of the 2013 Macau Red Dragon Cup

Post by Bookmaker »

The main event of the 2013 Macau Red Dragon Cup (MPC) featured 532 poker players, far exceeding the previous year's 391 players. As players grow, the total prize pool also reaches an astonishing HKD5,222,325. In this competition, there are 65 money circles, and players who enter the money circle can get at least HKD18,300, and the prize for the champion is HKD1,123,000. The final recipient of the million-dollar home was Japanese player Yoshitaka Okawa. Second place went to Zhenwu Wang from China with a prize of HKD784,000.

At the beginning of the final day's matches, there were still 19 players competing. After the start of the match, what no one expected was that an average of one player was eliminated every 5 minutes. Just 1 hour after the start of the race, it entered the battle of the final table. Dramatically, former Red Dragon champion Zhenjian Lin and other table player Jiarong Qiu bid farewell to the game at the same time, tied for ninth place. This means that only 8 players start the final table battle.

At this point, Yoshitaka Okawa has a quarter of the total chips on the table, but the dizzying thing is that after just one hand, Okawa has half of the chips. When the public deck is, Okawa, who is a big chip, faces the full pressure of another big chip, Shashank Rathi, and only calls with the choice in his hand. But unexpectedly, Rathi's hand was only the last sentence of this hand that laid the foundation for Okawa's victory.

Faced with Okawa Tower's striking-like chips, the remaining six players had to engage in a bloody battle. Michael Marvanek's was eliminated by Zhenwu Wang in sixth place. The final head-to-head showdown were two players, Yoshitaka Okawa and Zhenwu Wang. At this point, the chip ratio between the two players is 3:1. Okawa still has an advantageous position.

In the final hand, Okawa sees the flop after calling Wang's minimum raise of 580,000. Now both players are throwing their chips into the pool, Okawa's hand, but Wang's hand is the flush. But the transfer was issued. In the end, River didn't help Wang reverse. So far, Japanese player Okawa won the championship.
