Will ShillibierJulian Stuer is looking to better his 8th place finish in the �50,000 Super High Roller
Day 3 of the EPT 13 Barcelona �10,300 High Roller gets underway at 12.30 p.m. and will play down to a winner, no matter how late. Last year the structure was altered slightly to accommodate the larger than average field before Nick Petrangelo, Kuljinder Sidhu and eventual winner Mustapha Kanit did a deal, and that may have to be the case this year with an incredible 591 entries.
Leading the way is Ilkin Amirov with 1,700,000 in chips. The Azerbaijani is second in his home country's all time money list. His biggest cash came in last season's EPT Prague Main Event where he finished 3rd for �391,910 but will be eyeing up the �849,200 first prize money here in Barcelona.
Also with plenty of chips at the start of Day 3 is Julian Stuer. He final tabled the earlier �50,000 Super High Roller in Barcelona, finishing 8th for �181,200. The German will be looking to emulate his countryman Fedor Holz's win in that event.
