It was down to 304 players at the APPT Macau.  One of those who got sent packing was none other than professional poker phenom Phil Ivey, who made his first public appearance in months.  Ivey was one of over a dozen individuals who represented the now defunct online poker room, Full Tilt Poker.  That company is yet to pay back US players since April 15 and those worldwide since the end of June. 

Two-time World Series of Poker Main Event champion Johnny Chan surged to the top half of the leaderboard after Day 2 while Singapore native Nathaniel Seet took over as chip leader earlier in the day and heading into Day 3.  He had amassed a tournament-best 774,500 chips.

For the most part, poker players and successful gamblers in general tend to hog the glory. While some players rise to titanic levels of popularity, others tend to fade into the background, of no fault of their own. Simply put, there is only so much attention the public can give to professional gamblers. As a result, we have gathered here today not to give even more attention to the likes of Daniel Negreanu, but to talk about the unsung heroes of the industry that deserve more attention than they are current
