Day 1a of the ACOP Main Event features four Team PokerStars Pros while at least another three are expected on Day 1b.

WSOP bracelet winner Eugene Katchalov is sitting next to 10-time bracelet winner Johnny Chan, but it is Katchalov who has the edge today sitting with 57,600 in comparison to Chan's 20,000.

In 2012 Naoya Kihara won a bracelet in the $5,000 Pot Limit Omaha Six-Handed, however the glory of those days aren't following through in this event as yet as he sits with an average stack of 34,800.

APPT Cebu Champion Vivian Im is on the table next to Kihara and sits with 36,200 while Macau veteran Bryan Huang is battle the shortest stack of the four with just 24,000 in chips.
