$250,000 Super High Roller Bowl Bahamas Final Table Seat Draw
| Seat | Player | Country | Chips |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Daniel Dvoress | Canada | 1,925,000 |
| 2 | Jason Koon | United States | 2,720,000 |
| 3 | Seth Davies | United States | 2,915,000 |
| 4 | Justin Bonomo | United States | 1,430,000 |
| 5 | Steve O’Dwyer | Ireland | 1,935,000 |
| 6 | Kathy Lehne | United States | 2,100,000 |
| 7 | Wai Leong Chan | Malaysia | 1,390,000 |
| 8 | Erik Seidel | United States | 885,000 |
The eight-handed final table of the $250,000 Super High Roller Bowl has been reached after the 51 entrants were whittled down over the course of two days.
With only eight places paid and the min-cash weighing in at $510,000, nobody wanted to be the unfortunate soul who burst the money bubble. Someone has to be that person and it was Wai Kin Yong who finished in ninth place.
Yong raised to 55,000 with ace-seven of spades from the button and Seth Davies called from the big blind. Davis checked the four-three-ace flop that showed two diamonds. Yong bet 60,000 then called Davies check-raise to 170,000. Davies then moved all in on the six of spades turn and Yong called off his last 390,000 chips. Davies showed jack-five of diamonds before the nine of diamonds on the river completed his flush.
That hand gifted Davies the chip lead going into the final table on November 18th. A fifth-place finish or higher would net Davies his first seven-figure prize.
Joining Davies at the final table is partypoker’s Jason Koon who is less than 200,000 chips behind Davies in the chip counts. They'll battle it out with Daniel Dvoress, Justin Bonomo, Steve O’Dwyer, Kathy Lehne, Wai Leong Chan, and Erik Seidel. Lehne is looking to become the first female champion of a Super High Roller Bowl event.

Michael Zhang Leads Final 22 in partypoker $10,300 MILLIONS High Roller
The partypoker MILLIONS $10,300 High Roller is another tournament that will crown its champion today. The 102-strong field has been reduced to only 22 and only 17 of those returning players will see a return on their investment.
A min-cash is worth $25,000, a final table appearance boosts this to $45,000 with the winner walking away with $280,000.
British superstar Michael Zhang is the man on course for the top prize right now courtesy of his 11,560,000 stack. Zhang won’t have it easy when he returns to the fray as his table is also home to Kahle Burns, Chris Hunichen, Ema Zajmovic, Joni Johkimainen, Norbert Szecsi and Alex Foxen. If Zhang managed to emerge from that table unscathed, he will be a worthy winner.
Others to look out for on the final day’s action are Chance Kornuth, Anatoly Filatov, Sam Greenwood, Jack Sinclair, and Anthony Zinno.
