Seat 4: Nicholas Wong, Hong Kong (142,000 chips)
Nick Wong is a 44-year-old investor who seems to specialize in investing tournament buy-ins into high roller events and then winning the events for a healthy return. He has two high roller wins under his belt, both in Macau: one in November 2011, one in November 2010. He also plays in some high-limit cash games, suggesting a poker player who is both skilled and well-financed.
Wong says that the fantastic weather and beautiful beaches in Cebu have been a definite highlight of the trip. We imagine that if he wins the $141,000 1st place prize for this Main Event, that would move to the top of his trip highlights.
