It was right here in Prague where Bryn Kenney pitched the idea of a single day High Roller to PokerStars' Live Events Specialist Neil Johnson. It was put on the schedule for that season's Grand Final and it was a big succes. The "Bryn Kenney" invitational as the tournament was dubbed the first time, has been on the schedule for every stop since, with varying buy ins:
| Season | EPT Stop | Buy In | Uniques | Re Entries | Entries | Winner | Prize |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 11 | EPT Grand Final | �50,000 | 54 | 12 | 66 | Mustapha Kanit | �936,500 |
| 12 | EPT Barcelona | �25,000 | 118 | 34 | 152 | Martin Finger | �865,900 |
| 12 | EPT Malta | �10,000 | 99 | 35 | 134 | Steve O'Dwyer | �327,030 |
Play starts at 12:30 local time where players will receive 100,000 in chips. Levels will be 30 minutes long through out the day with blinds at 500 and 1,000 the first half hour. Registration for this event closes at 5:00 pm with eliminated players having the option to re enter once till that time. The structure sheet can be found here (.pdf)
Last stop's Single Day High Roller champion Steve O'Dwyer added another goblet to his throphy room yesterday as he came out victorious in the regular �50,000 High Roller for �746,543. It's likely we'll see O'Dwyer enter today's �25,000 Single Day High Roller, though that would mean he can't enter the Main Event till the start of Day 2, or when he gets eliminated from this event.
The event in Monte Carlo was finished at 2:25 am, while the Barcelona Single Day High Roller was stopped 3-handed at 3:53 am and continued two days later. The Malta edition was done at 2:34 am, so just expect a long day of poker action right here in Prague as well. As per usual, you can follow all of it on PokerNews.com. We'll be on sight from start to finish and bring you coverage of the biggest names in poker battling it out in a high roller to be finished in just a single day!
