#56 Day 1

Day 1 of the prestigious Superstar Challenge has come to a close with 48 entries recorded, and registration still open for the first three levels of the Final Day. A total of 27 players made it through the Day 1 chaos, with South Korea's Wooseok Kim leading the pack with a solid 937,000. Kim delivered a last minute elimination just as the day closed, sending Li Wei Te out over an ace-high battle, just enough to propel him past Ho Jun Yi's 927,000 chip count. Remaining in the fray are several seasoned contenders of which include Jason Lau, Konstantin Held, and former PS Main Event champions Lai Hsuan Yu.
