Many Hopefuls Return on Day 2
After four levels and a bit on Day 1 there are still 140 players in the hunt. A total of 22 players will get paid in this event, and that's still miles away for everyone. Even chip leader Yue Hin Lam is in no way guaranteed to make a deep run, and plenty of interesting poker remains to be played.
The goal today is to play at least five levels and the remaining part of the fifth level. It's going to be a long day today which is expected to finish around 3:00 AM. With the amazing structure presented to the players here in Macau it will be a tough challenge for the qualifiers to face all the top pros that are still remaining.
PokerNews.com will follow all the action throughout the night, as we are looking to find some favorites to win the HKD $4,240,000 first place prize!
