Feng Zhou Leads Final 10 in Event 2
Day 2 of Event 2: AU$2,200 No-Limit Hold'em has come to an end at the 2014 World Series of Poker Asia Pacific with 10 players still eyeing their shot at capturing the second gold bracelet of the series.
31 players began the day with just a few eliminations needed until 24 players were guaranteed a AU$3,969 payday. Andrew Hinrichsen, Jeff Gross and Kitty Kuo all found themselves on the rail before Steven Zhou moved all in holding and was called by Aik-Chuan Nee and his . Unfortunately for Zhou, the board ran out to ensure Zhou earned the title of bubble boy.
From there, Russell Thomas (24th), Najeem Ajez (21st), Tien Pham (14th), Tim O'Shea (13th) and Dan Heimiller (11th) all fell short of reaching the unofficial final table of 10 before the health concern of Nee would halt play for the evening with the final 10 sitting as follows:
