High Rollers 23: $5,200 NLHE 8-Max Main Event

Entrants: 515
Prize pool: $2,575,000
ITM: 63

Artem ��veeea�� Vezhenkov is no stranger to the winner��s circle having won the Sunday Million three times during his impressive career. Now he has a High Rollers title to add to his resume and the not-so-small matter of $457,344.

Finland��s ��elmerixx�� was the unfortunate soul who burst the money bubble, busting in 64th place. This paved the way for the likes of Talal ��raidalot�� Shakerchi, ��Pimmss��, Luc ��YRWTHMELTHR�� Greenwood, ��WATnlos��, and ��huang33�� to see a return on their $5,200 investment.

UK-based Spaniard ��deivid29�� was the first of the eight finalists to bust; they collected $55,641. Dutch player ��TheKrawiec�� fell in seventh and won $75,178, the last score not to be worth six-figures.

British pro Simon ��simon1471�� Higgins banked $101,574 for his sixth-place exit before Julien ��L1VeYRdrEamS�� Perouse exited in fifth for $137,238.

Fourth-place and $185,424 went to Finnish star Samuel ���urop�an�� Vousden with Eduardo ��edudrake1987�� Pires running out of steam to bust in third-place for $250,529.

Vezhenkov defeated Swedish legend Simon ��C. Darwin2�� Mattsson heads-up for the title, resigning the Swede to a $338,494 consolation prize.

High Rollers 14: $10,300 NLHE 8-Max PKO

Entrants: 86
Prize pool: $1,000,000
ITM: 11

The High Rollers 14: $10,300 NLHE 8-Max PKO had a $1 million guarantee but a field of only 86 meant an overlay for PokerStars. Nobody who cashed was bothered by the fact PokerStars had to make up the $140,000 difference, free cash is free cash after all.

British superstar Michael ��mczhang�� Zhang was the last player standing in this event and he padded his bankroll with a combined prize weighing in at $239,803. Zhang sent Jans ��Graftekkel�� Arends to the showers in second-place so Arends had to console himself with a $168,858 runner-up prize.

Earlier at the final table, Moldova��s ��silentm0de�� and Jonathan ��Proudflop�� Proudfoot were the first casualties and they walked away with $43,361 and $47,141 respectively.

High stakes cash game specialist Ignat ��0Human0�� Liviu won $40,047 for his sixth-place exit while ��Radogoszcz�� won $57,335 after busting one place deeper.

Rui ��RuiNF�� Ferreira��s fourth-place weighed in at $112,868 before Tuen ��tinnoemulder�� Mulder became the penultimate bust out, a finish worth $126,975 with bounty payments included.

High Rollers 11: $5,200 NLHE 6-Max

Entrants: 102
Prize pool: $510,000
ITM: 11

The High Rollers 11: $5,200 NLHE 6-Max saw 102 entries create a $510,000 prize pool that was shared among the top 11 finishers. Gianluca ��Tankanza�� Speranza was the bubble boy, paving the way for a $14,712 score for the remaining 11 players.

As you would expect from a $5,200 buy-in event, the in-the-money list read likes a who��s who of poker. Jans ��Graftekkel�� Arends, Niklas ��Lena900�� Astedt and Claas ��SicK_OnE�� Segebrecht were among those finishing in the money, the latter busting in seventh to set the final table.

Andras ��probirs�� Nemeth busted in sixth place for $32,510 while Luuk ��pokerkluka�� Gieles saw his $5,200 turn into $42,344. Next to fall was Samuel ���urop�an�� Vousden, a finish worth $55,153, before Netherlands�� Tuen ��tinnoemulder�� Mulder scooped a $71,837 third-place prize.

This left ��girafganger7�� and the Ukraine��s ��Remi Lebo_10�� to lock horns heads-up. It was the former who emerged victoriously and banked $121,872, leaving the Ukrainian to secure a $93,568 payday.
