Te Loses Six-Bet Pot

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Following a raise from the player in middle position, William Te three-bet the small blind to 1,100. The action returned to the original raiser and he four-bet to 3,500 only to have Te five-bet to 6,600.

After a few moments, Te's opponent would put in a six-bet amounting to 16,500. Te quickly called, and when the dealer dropped the {7-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{J-Spades} flop, he fired out 12,000 only to have his opponent move all in for roughly 29,200.

Te contemplated his decision for roughly two minutes before folding while slipping to 16,450 in chips.

Winfred Arriving Tomorrow

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante
Danny McDonagh from earlier today with Fred Leung
Danny McDonagh from earlier today with Fred Leung

Although the registration period has concluded there are still 3 players that will be entering the tournament later tonight and tomorrow on Day 2 who have already had their money received by the PokerStars Live team.

Winfred Yu is one of these players who is flying direct from Paris following the WSOP Europe and WPT Paris events.

Although normally their chip stacks would be put into play, APPT President and Tournament Director Danny McDonagh has calculated how many chips they would lose over the next two levels and announced that they will start tomorrow with 26,775. This calculation was made by taking into account one round of blinds for the remainder of this level, and then four in the next level.

These three additional players are also part of the 110-player Day 1b field which sets the total player number at 203.
