After fourteen grueling hours, Day 1a of the 2007 PokerStars.net APPT Grand Final has officially come to an end. Today’s action saw 179 runners take to the felt, though only 30 of them will return on Saturday for Day 2 play.

Among the day’s casualties were WSOP Main Event Winners Greg “Fossilman” Raymer (2004) and Chris Moneymaker (2003). 2007 APPT Macau High Roller’s Event champion Eric Assadourian also found himself a victim of Day 1. Davoud Khajeh tops the list of the select few who survived the day, as he will return on Saturday with a whopping 297,600 in chips. Fellow Australian players Michael Zowie, Trudie Sultana and Grant Levy will also return on Saturday, all with formidable chip stacks.

Our coverage of the APPT Sydney Grand Final continues tomorrow morning at 10:30 a.m. local time, at which time players registered for the Day 1b flight will begin their quest to become the biggest winner in the history of the APPT.

Until then, good night and good luck!
