The Super High Roller event continues to grow as there are already 21 entries through just under an hour of play. One of the players that has joined the action is none other than Pascal Lefrancois, the Main Event Champion in the MILLIONS Barcelona Grand Final just over a week ago.
A solid group of players who enjoy starting at the beginning of an event have assembled at tables 36 and 40 and cards are now in the air in this $25,000 + $500 event. This is the largest buy-in event in Playground Poker Club history – at least among open events – and with registration open through 9 levels (plus breaks), we should see a steady stream of players joining the event throughout the first 3/4 of the day.
Some of the players in to start with: Kristen Bicknell, Samuel Chartier, Victor Ramdin and Darren Elias – we’ll have photos and a full list shortly.
It’s the beginning of a new week at Playground Poker Club, and with it comes the largest buy-in event in the MILLIONS North America – the $25,000 + $500 Super High Roller! Considering the players that have been camped at the tables all weekend, this is certain to be a great event with a field of the highest caliber. As is the case with all of the other side events in the MILLIONS, this tournament has a $1,000,000 prize pool guarantee.
The formula for today will be familiar – play on Day 1 will continue through 12 levels of 40 minutes each today, and players are permitted one entry and one re-entry any time until the end of the break following level 9. Players will start with 1,000,000 tournament chips.
As always, we’re going to have wire-to-wire coverage of the event here on the Playground Event Blog, and both My partypoker Live and PokerNews will have live updates as well. In addition, the action in the tournament will be featured via a Live Stream, starting at around 2:30pm today. You can access the Live Stream through My partypoker Live or just by clicking the Live tab in the main menu on this blog.
Good luck to all of the players today!
