The opening heat of the highly anticipated NT$ 20 million guaranteed PS Taiwan Championship attracted 87 entries, narrowing down to just 13 players in the money. After 16 intense levels of 40-minute play, the bubble burst, with Sim Eun Jung being the unfortunate final elimination after running his J J right into Paul Garcia's A A .


Once bagging time was in, Malaysia’s Liew Lee Wee emerged at the top spot with a stack of 448,000, followed by Garcia with 339,000. Defending PS Main Event champion Lai Hsuan Yu rounded out the top three, finishing day one with a strong 322,000.
