Super High Roller: Five Return for the Title

Level 15: 5,000/10,000 with a 1,000 Ante
Players Remaining: 5 of 28

Adrian Mateos leads the Super High Roller

It’s not often that a 28-entry field can create a prize pool over $1.4 million, but the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown Super High Roller pulled it off. The tournament drew some of the best players in the game to compete against each other for big money.

Erik Seidel, Jason Mercier, Byron Kaverman, Scott Seiver, Tom Marchese, Steven Chidwick, Dan Colman, and Bryn Kenney were a handful of the players to show up but fall short of the money. Five players were set to get paid and we have five players returning today.

EPT Champion Adrian Mateos leads the way with Dietrich Fast not far behind and not far removed from a $25K High Roller Turbo victory at LAPC. Fast’s fellow German Rainer Kempe won a $25K Aria High Roller earlier this month and returns with the “shortest” stack along with WSOP bracelet winner David Peters. Right in the middle of the pack, we have 2016 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open Champion, Jason Koon.

These five players have combined for more than $41.7 million in career earnings along with their bracelets, trophies, and accolades.

With 90-minute levels and deep stacks, this will be a long, tough game for the eventual Super High Roller winner.

Cards go back in the air at noon and we’ll have all the action.
