Another Day In Queenstown

The APPT continues in Queenstown, New Zealand
The APPT continues in Queenstown, New Zealand

Welcome back to Sky City Casino as the 2011 APPT Queenstown Main Event continues, with Day 1b action set to kick off shortly!

Yesterday saw 40 players take to the felt, dishing out the NZ$2,700 entry fee and it is expected that today and tomorrow will easily trump that number. Expected to play in today’s field include the likes of 2005 WSOP Main Event Champion Joe Hachem, his brother and two-time ANZ Player of the Year winner Tony Hachem, 2010 APPT Sydney Main Event Champion Jonathan Karamalikis and Andrew Hinrichsen, fresh from his deep run at this years WSOP Main Event.

The international contingent of players will be looking to use today to knock the Kiwi’s off the top of the castle after three New Zealanders trumped yesterday’s field on home felt, with the chip leader board currently led by New Zealand’s Cole Swannack, with 86,050 in chips.

Play is again set for 12.30 p.m local time, so be sure to join the PokerNews Live Reporting Team in bringing you all the action, as the cards are back in the air in just over an hour.
