It was a very lucky day for Zou from China who ended up being the chip leader, bagging 2,420,000 chips entering the Final Table. Out of 404 entries, 77 players battled it out to make it into-the-money and ultimately the final table. On numerous occasions, Zou found himself all-in either behind or dominated, but somehow, by a stroke of luck, had always caught the needed outs at the right time. Following him closely at second is Zhang Shang Fei who was mostly the chip leader throughout the day, ending the day with 2,285,000 chips.
All 9 are guaranteed a cash prize of $9,100 but will strive to take home the top prize of $97,100, the Won Poker Cup Main Event Eagle Trophy and the title of Won Poker Cup Champion in this milestone event.
