Good Game, Day 1b

125 runners were in the field for Day 1b, just a shade more than the 119 that turned out yesterday. We're not sure how many were left at the end of the day; when the last six hands were called, 65 remained but a few more hit the rail before the bags were brought out.
The player of the day was young Kristoffer Myhre, who rocketed to the top of the counts in the middle part of the day by cracking pocket aces twice. The second time his 50,000-chip stack collided with Team PokerStars Asia Pro Tae Joon Noh's stack. The hand ended Noh's day and propelled Myhre to six figures in chips.
From there Myhre relentlessly bludgeoned his table, eventually ending the day in the chip lead with a staggering 183,400 chips. Other players over the century mark include Peter Nielsen (141,500), Roel Pijpers (125,500), Darkhan Botabayev (124,500) and Kyle Cheong (118,300).
There's one more Day 1 flight scheduled for 12:15pm local time tomorrow. See you then!
