Few More Faces

Just as expected, Day 1b of the APPT Auckland Main Event already features a much larger field than yesterday. There were 53 runners on Day 1a and there are already 85 at the felt during this first level and with registration open for three levels.

As the day kicks on we have noticed a few more familiar faces. Some of those include Macau regular Dan Sing, Justin Walch, Paul Elliot, Ken Demlakian, Wayde Rickhuss, Ryan Otto and 2014 APPT Seoul runner-up Wayde Rickhuss.

There are also quite a few names on the online qualifier list who we recognise, but haven't taken their seats yet. Plenty of unfamiliar locals are also littered throughout the field and we are sure they will be looking to stamp their authority on their home soil.
