Daniel Craker wins Asian Pacific Poker Tour
Kiwi Daniel Craker won the Asian Pacific Poker Tour (APPT) Main Event that took place on his home ground this weekend, collecting a handsome first prize of NZD $257,040. Although Craker entered final play with a significant chip lead, he had managed to keep a low profile throughout, leaving all the hard work to Wang Jung before he moved in and made his killing. Wang Jung eliminated almost every opponent at the final table before Craker busted him into third place. By the time heads-up play kicked off, Craker had such a chip advantage; it took him only two hands to finish off his last opponent, Matthew Konnecke.
For his second place finish, Konnecke won $162,791.
