The eventful Australian Poker Open continues shortly, as players return for Day 1b of the $1,500 Platinum Player Championships. An impressive field of 148 entries took their seats yesterday, all looking to collect chips and make it into the money of this AUD $500,000 guaranteed event.

Play gets underway at 3 p.m. local time at Doltone House Western Sydney at Club Marconi, where the main ballroom is all dressed up and ready for action.

A total of 19 players survived Day 1am, with Minkyu Jun leading the way after bagging 1,521,000 chips. That sets a big benchmark for players in this unlimited reentry event, as players have four more opening flights to chase down the chip leader.
