After the completion of three starting days in the Grand Ballroom at the multi-award winning, world-class integrated resort of NagaWorld in Phnom Penh, the inaugural PokerStars Asia Pacific Poker Tour stop in the Kingdom of Cambodia is set for the race to the final table of the 2022 APPT Cambodia $1,500 Main Event.
Out of a field of 378 entries, 75 players remain in contention to earn their share of the $494,991 prize pool. Only 55 of them will succeed with a min-cash worth $2,425 and the penultimate tournament day is set to play down to the nine-handed final table at Naga 1.
Leading the way is Day 1a chip leader Nam Hyung Kim with 410,000 in chips, which is just a single chip ahead of Valeriy Pak (409,000) with a trio of players not far behind. Omair Javed (397,000) and Brett Pullen (396,000) are separated by the same smallest of margins and Quoc Huy Phan (381,000) rounds out the overall top five.
Notables with above average stacks include Chris Backhouse, Tzai Wei Phua, Zdravko Duvnjak, Jean-Robert Autran, Hwany Lee, Bryan Huang, Ori Elul and Markus Garberg. They all have more than 50 big blinds at their disposal for the restart at 1pm local time as level 15 recommences with blinds of 2,000-4,000 and a big blind ante of 4,000. There is also a 30-second shot clock in play as well from Day 2 onwards.
Others to keep an eye on are familiar names such as David Erquiaga, Daniel Smiljkovic, Michael Soyza, Florencio Campomanes, Vincent Huang, Paul Newey, Sofia Lovgren-Fullmer, Natalie Teh, Victor Chong, and Eric Wasylenko who can be found in the middle of the pack and bottom half of the leaderboard respectively.
As of Day 2 and until a champion has been crowned on Sunday, November 13, 2022, the level duration lasts 60 minutes each. The money bubble will burst today and the action concludes once the field is whittled down to the final nine hopefuls.
Stay tuned for all the poker action from Cambodia right here on PokerNews en route to crowning the second APPT Main Event champion in 2022.
