The second Day 1 flight of the 2009 Asian Poker Tour Macau Main Event has officially come to an end. 192 players started the day. When the chips were bagged, several of the 51 players remaining were vying for the chip lead. By our estimates it appears that Aussie Stewart Scott -- winner of the 2009 Aussie Millions Main Event -- was overtaken at the very end of the night by Eugene Teh's stack of 95,000 chips.

In contrast with the play we saw during Day 1A, today was a day of slow, steady chip accumulation. It was also a day of painful eliminations for many of the more recognizalbe and accomplished players. Chino Rheem was among the very first players eliminated after he fell to a rivered two-outer. Tommy Le and two-time APT runner-up Steve Yea soon followed. Also hitting the rail during the day were Chau Giang, John Juanda, Liz Lieu, James Akenhead, Praz Bansi and Vivek Rajkumar.

Tomorrow the field of 88 survivors combines. They'll play all the way down to a final table, which will be played out Sunday. The action kicks off at noon local time with PokerNews providing all your live updates. See ya!
