Super High Roller Underway; 29 Registered So Far
The HK$500,000 (US$64,516) three-day Super High Roller Event got underway this evening in the City of Dreams, Macua and it's attracted a star-studded field.
So far, 29 (21 of which have taken their seats) players have registered but that number is sure to grow as registration is open until the end of level 8, which is the first level of Day 2. Players can re-buy/re-enter up to two times so the prizepool could end up being considerable.
Steve O'Dwyer is the reigning champion and he'll be taking his seat later after busting from the Main Event a short while ago. Christoph Vogelsang and Mikhail Shalamov are in the same boat and when they take their seats they'll be joining the likes of Fedor Holz, Isaac Haxton, Pratyush Buddiga, David Peters, Jason Mo, John Juanda, Mustpha Kanit, Stephen Chidwick, Ivan Luca and live satellite winner, Andy Andrejevic.
PokerNews will bring you occasion updates from the event and full coverage from the final table on Sunday.
