Jianfeng Sun wins WPT Cambodia Warm Up, Yinfei Xiao leads the Nagaworld Cup

A new week has begun and it’s picking up where the weekend left off: with a lot of poker action at Nagaworld in Phnom Penh.

Cash Games were running hot with up to ten tables yesterday. On the tournament front the World Poker Tour here in Cambodia had only seen the conclusion of one event so far, but more trophies have been awarded today.

The $1,100 Main Event Warm Up champion is Jianfeng Sun

Out of 95 entries in this event, 20 players came back today for Day 2 with Tomaz Kogovsek from Slovenia leading the way with a 263,500 chip stack.

It didn’t take long to reach the money ranks as 12 players were paid and the final table was a truly international spectacle with nine different countries represented. Jakub Kotas from Czech Republic was the first to bust final table and the player who started the day as the chip leader, Tomaz Kokovsek, finished 8th.

The two Skandinavian nationals Stig Erik Billgren (Sweden) and Didrik Andreas Manto (Norway) finished in 7th and 6th respectively.

Natalie Teh shined with a great performance but could only reach rank 5 in this event, taking home $5,529. Pakistan’s Muhammad Shahzad came in 4th and Yao Tay from Singapore 3rd only one hand later.

Heads-up was then battled out between India and China. Indian player Laksh Pal Singh led into the heads-up match, but slowly and steadily Jianfeng Sun managed to add the chips to his own stack.

Finally it came to the deciding hand with a short Singh preflop all-in with Qh10s against Sun’s As8d. The 5c4dJs9hJc board did not improve Singh’s hand and WPT Cambodia found its second side event champion, also from China.

Jianfeng Sun can celebrate with first prize money of $29,234 and a shiny trophy.

1 – Jianfeng Sun – China – $29,234
