Day 2 of the PokerStars.net Asian Pacific Poker Tour High Rollers tournament saw 28 top competitors get whittled down to the final nine. The difficult Day 2 marked the end of many top pros, including Mike "timex" Mcdonald, Joe Hachem, Barry Greenstein, and last year's High Rollers Champion Eric Assadourian.

With only nine players left, there are nevertheless a number of pros still in the hunt and shooting for the nearly half million dollar first place prize, including David Steicke, Quinn Do, Nam Le, APPT Macau Main Event runner-up Charles Chua, and the legendary "Orient Express" Johnny Chan.

With so much talent at one table, it's anyone's guess who will come out on top. Yet one thing is abundantly clear - this final table is going to be one to watch.
