🇭🇰 Lin Hao
TWD565,100
Lin Hao Claims Victory in the High Roller Knockout
The High Roller Knockout has come to an end, and it is 🇭🇰 Lin Hao who finishes on top after outlasting a competitive 84-entry field. Hao navigates the swings of bounty pressure and deep-stack aggression to secure the win along with TWD 565,100 (~USD 17,165).
Bubble Burst & Fast Final Table
The day begins at full throttle as players race to accumulate chips before registration closes. Once late registration ends, the atmosphere shifts—every decision grows heavier as the bubble looms.
In dramatic fashion, 🇩🇪 Konstantin Held and 🇹🇼 Lai Hsuan Yu exit simultaneously, splitting 13th place for TWD 22,500 each. With the money reached, eliminations accelerate rapidly, and within 15 minutes the final table is formed.
Final Table Highlights
Right after the break, 🇭🇰 Horace Leung shoves with A♠8♦ but runs straight into 🇭🇰 Lee Hong Cheong’s pocket kings, exiting in 9th place for TWD 60,000 (~USD 1,822).
Moments later, 🇰🇷 Lim Dong Hyun sees his A♠J♦ connect with a jack, only to discover it completes Hao’s straight. He departs in 8th for TWD 68,000 (~USD 2,065).
🇲🇾 Teoh Ming Hong falls in 7th after losing a classic coin flip to Hao, earning TWD 77,000 (~USD 2,339).
🇰🇷 Kim Ki Young, who had earlier doubled through Wang, bows out in 6th place for TWD 90,000 (~USD 2,733) when 🇺🇸 Kai Wang completes a straight.
🇭🇰 Lee Hong Cheong follows in 5th, unable to crack Hao’s pocket deuces with ace-six suited, collecting TWD 113,000 (~USD 3,432).
The last woman remaining, 🇰🇷 Miae Jung, finishes 4th for TWD 145,000 (~USD 4,404) after Hao calls down her bluff with ace-four.
🇹🇼 Cheng Jyun Yang, who had been among the shortest stacks near the bubble, mounts an impressive ladder before exiting in 3rd for TWD 215,000 (~USD 6,530) after Hao rivers a full house.
Heads-Up Showdown
Heads-up begins with 🇺🇸 Kai Wang holding the advantage, having controlled much of the later stages. However, a crucial confrontation swings the momentum to Hao, leaving Wang short.
In the final hand, Wang moves all-in with 5♣2♠ after making two pair on board. Hao calls with A♠3♦, and the board pairs again to give Hao trips, sealing the victory and ending Wang’s run.
Wang earns TWD 363,100 (~USD 10,631) for his runner-up finish after a strong performance.
After a fast-paced and action-heavy finale, 🇭🇰 Lin Hao emerges as the last player standing in the High Roller Knockout, adding another impressive score to his résumé.
