Welcome back to PokerStars Live at the City of Dreams for Day 4 of the Asia Championship of Poker (ACOP) HK$100,000 Main Event.
Yesterday saw 72 players return to the felt and with six levels of play on the cards, many were expecting that we would reach the money by the end of play. However no-one expected the speed of play to be so fast as players were sent to the rail at a high and constant speed.
Unfortunately there would be a stop sign near the end of the road as play screeched to a grinding halt once play was down to the final 27 as it would take several hours before we limped into the money with David Martirosyan losing a flip to guarantee the final 25 a HK$198,000 payday.
Leading the players into the penultimate day of play is American Jonathan Depa who slowly accumulated throughout the day to end with 662,000. PokerStars Team Online members Randy Lew and Naoya Kihara, along with Asia Player of the Year contenders Terry Fan and Yoshitaka Okawa are also in the hunt as well as the two remaining females Cheryl Peng and Yujung Choi.
