The PokerStars.fr High Roller event was originally scheduled to be a two-day event but after those two days and 21 levels of action it will roll over to a third day tomorrow.
A total of 51 players returned today and they were joined by two new entries meaning 53 players out of the 85 total were in attendance. By the end of the day Martin Jacobson finished top of the remaining six with 1,299,000 chips, and best in with a chance of claiming the €313,000 top prize.
All the remaining players will sleep well tonight as they know they are guaranteed a minimum €47,500. Here's the remaining six and how they stand coming back for day 3:
| Seat | Player | Chips |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Steven Silverman | 353,000 |
| 2 | Alexandre Reard | 943,000 |
| 3 | Timothy Reilly | 823,000 |
| 4 | Vojtech Ruzicka | 1,051,000 |
| 5 | Martin Jacobson | 1,299,000 |
| 6 | Bryn Kenney | 472,000 |
One player who won't sleep well tonight was the unfortunate bubble boy. Tibor Nagygyorgy shoved his short stack in with ace-ten but ran into two players behind him pocket jacks and pocket aces. Adrian Mateos had the jacks and was also eliminated in the hand but min cashed by virtue of having the larger stack.
Play will resume at 1pm CET tomorrow where the latest High Roller champion of EPT Season 9 will be decided.
