APT SHR: Abhinav Iyer Among 30 Survivors to Day 2

It’s not for nothing that Abhinav Iyer is considered as one of the best tournament poker players in the country. He was struggling with a lower stack few hours before the close of play but he made a fair recovery to take 1,595,000 chips to Day 2 of the APT Super High Roller. The tournament saw a record field of 156 entries and at the end of the day, 30 of them will bag and tag, and return on Day 2 at the National Convention Center in Hanoi, Vietnam. 

Many Indians were participating in the APT National Cup but Iyer jumped in here with Akshay Nasa, Gaurav Sood, Vishal Ojha, and Ashish Munot. And at the end of the day, he’s the sole Indian in contention, currently among the top 10 stacks as well. Leading the pack is Hong Kong’s Hon Cheong Lee who has 4,125,000 chips and we’re seven spot away from the money, as the top 23 places will be paid when players return for the APT SHR Day 2 tomorrow. Stay tuned for more updates from Gutshot Magazine on Day 2…
