Eng Loong Choi
Eng Loong Choi has been on a heater since last year and to cap it off, he won the Gold Gauntlet at the GOP debut in Jeju. Returning for another shot at a gauntlet, he was in a heated battle against John Niko Costiniano on a board of 7 ♦️ 4 ♣️ Q ♦️ 4 ♠️ A ♥️ with 74,000 in the pot.
Costiniano checked from the small blind position while Choi burned through one time-bank before announcing all in. Costiniano quickly surrendered his hand.
