Un Thaïlandais au sommet, Deyra et Soulier mènent 7 Français au Jour 3
Niveau 12
: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Le Jour 2 du Main Event PokerStars Championship a vu 26 joueurs s'inscrire en dernière minute pour porter l'affluence de la première à Macau à 536 joueurs. Ils étaient 369 au départ de cette deuxième journée de compétition avec encore une petite vingtaine de tricolores toujours dans la course. Après 6 niveaux de 90 minutes, ils ne sont plus que 151 en lice pour se partager le prizepool de 2,6 millions de dollars.
Les joueurs se battent pour un premier prix de 3 millions de dollars de Hong Kong (environ 402 000US$) mais il faut déjà parvenir à encaisser le min-cash de 8000$ américains. La route est encore longue pour succéder à Christian Harder et Kenneth Smaron mais le Thaïlandais Pakani Lisawad semble en bonne position avec 301 000 jetons et le chiplead.
L'Asiatique devance le tricolore Ivan Deyra. Le serial perfeur sur le défunt circuit EPT a monté 275 700 jetons pour se hisser à la deuxième place provisoire. Chuanshu Chen (272,700), Kiryl Radzivonau (243,200) et Fabrice Soulier (243,000 après s'être qualifié sur un satellite live sur place) complètent le Top 5. Le Français Thibaut Blondel n'est pas loin avec un peu plus de 210 000 jetons.
