$25,500 High Roller No Limit Hold’em
$1,000,000 Guaranteed | Structure | Payouts
Level 16: 6,000/12,000 with a 2,000 ante
Players Remaining: 14 of 75

Yesterday’s Lucky Hearts Poker Open High Roller saw the $25,500 buy-in ponied up a total of 75 times. From those 75 starting entries, just 14 remained following 15 levels of play. Those still in return today at 12pm to compete for a spot among the 11 in-the-money places and a piece of the tournament’s $1,875,000 prize pool.

Leading the way by a margin is Justin Bonomo. Fresh off a third-place finish in the $50,000 buy-in Super High Roller, Bonomo bagged a monster yesterday ultimately taking the overnight chip lead with 1,866,000.

Next up in the counts is none other than Stefan Schillhabel, last week’s Super High Roller champion. Schillhabel sits on 1,083,000 chips and is the only other player over 1,000,000.

Adrian Mateos lost that heads-up match to Schillhabel last week in the $50k, but he might get a shot at redemption today. He begins in third place at the moment.
