Welcome to Day 2 of the Main Event! As everyone is well aware, we’ve already blown past the advertised PHP 8 Million guarantee with the combined 290 entries at the starting days. Registration is still open until the start of Level 10 so that number will likely go up a bit. We will have the official tally for you once registration closes.
Today we’ve got 158 players headed back to the felt to battle it out another 8 rounds or to the money, whichever comes first. Entering as the overall chip leader is Malaysia’s Lee Chin Yong with 192,750. In second position is decorated APT Main Event champion, Korea’s SJ Kim with 139,600. Rounding out the top three is Chinese Taipei’s Jack En Ching Wu with 119,675. In addition there are 11 other APT major title-holders in the mix.
Day 2 action begins at Level 9, blinds at 300-600 ante 75 with increases every sixty minutes. Cards will be in the air at exactly 1pm. We will post some hands right here so make sure to check back with us throughout the day.
Good luck to all! See you back here at 1pm!
