Time to Play Down to the APPT Melbourne Final Table
Welcome to the penultimate day of play here at the 2012 APPT Melbourne Main Event! Today will see 44 players become nine. Who will make the final table?
The player in the best shape heading in to today's play is Wayne Bentley. Hot on Bentley's tail is the defending champion and Australian poker hall of fame member, Leo Boxell. It would be a huge achievement for Boxell to make the final table of the same event in back-to-back years and so we will watch on with anticipation to see how it all goes.
Some of the other players who are still in contention include Brendon Rubie, Dale Marsland, James Bills, Haibo Chu, Tom Grigg, Sam Razavi, Billy Argyros, Benn Skender and PokerStars Team Online member, Roy Bhasin. Below are the top ten chip stacks heading into Day 3.
