Brandon Adam bought into the Super High Roller after the first break and he was entrant number 29. That gives us another record this series and this is now the biggest Super High Roller in our history with there’s plenty of time to run it up. The previous high was set in 2018 during the WPT Poker Showdown

Adams comes in as one of our former High Roller champions. He won the $25K High Roller during the 2018 Poker Showdown for $370,000.

The entry count clicked up two more spots when Albert Daher and Giuseppe Iadisernia joined the fray. A few seats were moved around while Matt Wantman and Jason Mercier had a tiny tangle.

With the board reading , Mercier checked and Wantman moved all in for 63,000. Mercier sat back in his seat and thought it over for several moments. In a $50,000 buy-in tournament, the other players give a little slack to others making a decision. After a few minutes, Mercier slid his cards to the dealer.

Wantman is almost back up to a starting stack while Mercier is half of that.

Elio Fox and Ben Yu entered the Super High Roller which prompted another complete redraw to four tables. They shuffled seats and action is back underway.

In any way you look at it, Elio Fox is the defending champ. Whether you go year-after-year or back-to-back, he’s the guy. Fox won the $50,000 Super High Roller last year during the 2018 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open and followed that up with a Super High Roller win a few months ago during the Poker Showdown.

With the 21st entry, the Super High Roller prize pool climbed over $1,000,000 and it will continue to move up with several confirmed players waiting for a few levels before joining.

Erik Seidel was the latest player to enter and he’s at Table 1 seat 1. Unfortunately for Sean Winter, he recently vacated that spot.

We had 13 players at the start and that number quickly jumped to 20. That required the two tables running to redraw seats to split the field to three tables.

Recent additions include Sean Winter, Ali Imsirovic, Andy Andrejevic, and Jonathan Jaffe.

We have three players here via satellite and they are in the big game. Chris Arcidiacono won his way here by going from “Splash the Pot” promotion winner to a step satellite to a super high roller satellite to his seat today.

Last night we ran a $5,100 satellite with one seat guaranteed and it generated two seats by the time registration closed. Steven Veneziano and WPT Championship Club member Matt Wantman earned those seats.
