Down to Three; Greenwood Works on another Miracle
Back at the 2017 Caribbean Poker Party, Sam Greenwood had staged a stunning comeback from very few big blinds to take down the Main Event title and seven-figure payday. Greenwood is at it again here at the 2018 partypoker LIVE MILLIONS Grand Final in Barcelona as just three players remain in the €50,000 Super High Roller.
The all ins kept coming in quick succession and Greenwood doubled multiple times after being previously down to 600,000 at blinds of 250,000/500,000. One of the double ups was with ace-queen against the ace-six of Sergio Aido, who then scored a crucial double for 12.75 million with 
against the 
of Keith Tilston.
Jean-Noel Thorel would bow out in 5th place. He got lucky when his ace-ten suited beat the kings of Greenwood, but the final all in saw the Canadian take revenge with 
versus 
, the board ran out 
.
Tilston hung around for the payjump and his 
ended up second-best to the 
of Patrik Antonius. It was tough after the 
flop, the 
turn gave some hope and Tilston was eliminated after a blank 
river.
That left the remaining trio with at least €400,000 locked up, an easy four buy-ins for the €100,000 Super High Roller that is about to kick off on nearby tables. There was some delay in getting cards in the air while eight players gathered on two tables and asked for a slight change in the setup.
Eventually, everyone agreed on an initial shot-clock format with 45 seconds to act preflop and 30 seconds after that, with six time bank extensions granted to each participant. Two tables will soon grow to three as several other high stakes regulars have been spotted outside of the tournament area.
