Day 1 of the AU$1,650 8-Game Dealer's Choice from the 2014 World Series of Poker Asia-Pacific has come and gone. A total of 89 entries were tallied in this one, the sixth event of the series, and at the end of the day, just 19 remained. Finishing atop the pack was Australian Poker Hall of Fame member Gary Benson with 38,025 in chips.

The first day of play in this one proved to be full of fun and lots of different playing styles. Players had the option to pick one of eight games when it was their turn to do so, and everyone was having a good, competitive time on the felt. After Level 8, the prize pool was announced and it was made known that AU$42,720 would be awarded to the winner, plus the coveted WSOP gold bracelet.

Of those to enter and bust were David Gorr, Jonathan Karamalikis, Mohsin Charania, Ami Barer, Daniel Negreanu, Jeff Lisandro, Scott Clements, Phil Hellmuth, Jackie Glazier, Antonio Esfandiari, and current WSOP Player of the Year leader Brandon Shack-Harris. While Shack-Harris busted from this event, he did retake the Player of the Year lead from George Danzer after finishing sixth in the AU$1,650 No-Limit Hold'em Terminator event earlier in the day. But, Danzer still remains in this one and will be taking 32,275 in chips forward to Day 2 to make a run at jumping back in front of Shack-Harris. That puts Danzer fourth overall.

Some of the notable players remaining are Brian Rast, Jeff Gross, Jeff Madsen, Michael Guzzardi, Frank Kassela, and Jason Gray. They'll be back on Thursday for Day 2 that will begin at 12:30 p.m. local time.
