The High Roller Event is onto its final chapter today, and 13 players return to the felts to play down to a winner. Day 2 was slightly extended yesterday as players requested to continue action until the money bubble was burst, and therefore the 13 finalists are all assured of at least a $23,000 payday. A 6-figure cash awaits the top 3 finishers, with the tournament champion set to take home $270,000.
Tommy Nguyen returns as the chip leader, and his 526,000 chip stack dwarf his Day 3 adversaries. Ajay Chabra found a huge double-up late last night on the bubble, propelling him into second place while sending the field into the money. Full counts can be found in the table below.
Players are now at their seats and action is about to take off with 31 minutes left in level 17. Best of luck to the remaining players!
