Terrence Chan's seat is now empty so we made our way to the twittersphere to find out what happened.
"Busto. TT<JJ for most of it, then 99<TT<JJ for the last 10bb of it. #GettingItInGood. Who wants to hang out in Cebu?"

Terrence Chan has taken a big hit to leave his tournament hanging by a thread as Raiden Kan has found a very nice double up.
It started with a raise to 1,000 from early position. Chan smooth-called in middle position before Kan moved all in for a total of 10,400 from the cutoff. The original raiser folded but Chan was pretty quick to get his chips in the middle.
Chan: 
Kan: 
Chan was unlucky to run into the bigger pair and he couldn’t spike a two-outer on the 
board. Kan doubles to 24,000 with Chan now in trouble with just 6,000.

The girl with the sparkly fingernails, Emi Hibuse from Japan is seemingly the current chip leader in the room. Hibuse just eliminated another opponent with her 
, winning a preflop race to move up to 80,000 in chips.

Here are another couple of players that we can no longer spot in the tournament room. It's safe to assume that at some point they were eliminated.

Macau Poker Cup champion Nicky Tao Jin has just met his demise when his last chips were in preflop with ace-king, but he ran smack bang into an opponent’s pocket kings.
The board ran out 
to leave Jin to make a quick dash for the exit.

We aren't exactly sure how it happened, but a disgruntled David Ewing was leaving the table and heading out the door with a board showing 
and an opponent's 
lingering on the table.

We have been notified that the official number and prize pool has been slightly delayed due to not being able to confirm the whereabouts of one PokerStars qualifier. Either way, this year's field has surpassed last year's field with either 245 or 246 official entrants.
It is interesting to note that there were 42 countries represented in the field, with biggest country representation Australia with 13%, then Japan with 8% and Korea with 6%.
