Yesterday we saw 38 players survive an opening day field of 149 starters to make it through to Day 2 action. Today we're expecting another healthy field which should see us surpass last year's field of 255 players.
The big names are out in force today with our field set to include the likes of PokerStars pro Lee "Final Table" Nelson, duel WSOP bracelet winner John Phan, APPT Macau champ Eddy Sabat, PokerStars poster girl Celina Lin and APPT Seoul champ Yoshihiro Tasaka. They will all have one eye on defending champion Brett Parise who is an online qualifier into this event and will be looking for a repeat performance this year.
The action kicks off in about two hours' time at 12:30 p.m. local time and we look forward to your company once again!
