High Roller Heaven as the �50,000 NLH Diamond High Roller Starts Today
Some of the best, brightest, and biggest names are set to take to the felt in Event #12: �50,000 NLH Diamond High Roller here at King's Resort in Rozvadov. The event is scheduled to kick off at 4:15 p.m. local time and features a guaranteed prize pool of �1,000,000.

He defeated Ren Lin heads up to secure the bracelet. High roller regulars Daniel Dvoress and Chris Brewer finished in third and fourth respectively.
