Welcome to ANZPT Sydney!
Welcome back to The Star in Sydney, Australia, for Day 1b of the Australia New Zealand Poker Tour Main Event.
Yesterday saw 209 players take their seats. By the end of the day, 86 survived, with Gary Benson finished as the overwhelming chip leader, with 193,000 in chips.
We are expecting a large number of entrants today, which will hopefully surpass last year’s figures of 461 runners who participated in the event. Some notable players who will be playing in today’s field include Jonathan Karamalakis, Andrew Hinrichsen, and Tom wing as well as Team PokerStars Team Pros Bryan Huang, Angel Guillen and Team Online pro Roy Bhasin.
Stay tuned as the Pokernews Live Reporting Team bring you all the action from 12:30 local time.
