#32: Freezeout

Posted 27th August 2025 by Ace Kingsley

No rebuys. No safety nets. Just pure poker. The Freezeout event is a true battlefield where discipline meets courage, and one wrong move means the end of the journey.

From start to finish, South Korea’s Moon Junseong navigated the minefield to perfection. Out of 86 contenders, he stood as the last player standing in Event #32: Freezeout at the PS Championship II Taipei 2025, walking away with the NT$200,000 first prize and the glory that comes with it.
