Day 1 of the $10,000 + $300 High Roller tournament has officially come to a close.
Day 1 in the tournament saw a total of 55 entries (including 13 re-entries) take to the felts, but at the end of the day there were only 31 players left at their seats. At the top of the leaderboard is Tommy Nguyen, who currently has 119,800 chips. Right behind him is John Krpan with 102,000 and Erik Lemarquand with 101,000.
This event, which features a guaranteed $1,000,000 prize pool, allows for unlimited re-entries right into the beginning of level 13 on Day 2. Day 2 begins tomorrow at 2pm, which means that registration will remain open until 7:00pm. Judging by the interest in the event shown today by players in the room but who have not yet joined, tomorrow should see a steady stream of entries right until the end of the late registration period.
Below are some photos of our High Roller competitors. We’ll see them all tomorrow when they come back for Day 2!
