The first day of the HK$100,000 High Roller Event of the Asia Pacific Poker Tour at the PokerStars LIVE Macau at City of Dreams started fast and furious with six levels of late registration. During that period, players could also purchase up to a maximum of two rebuys and 30 of these additional bullets were added to the prize pool.
In total, there were 75 unique entries and after the completion of level 12, only 30 of them bagged chips for the final on Sunday with Steve O'Dwyer leading the field of survivors on 941,000 chips.
