Some of the biggest names in poker get back to the Atlantis poker room today for the final five of the $100,000 Super High Roller.
Leading the 5 remaining players, who are all guaranteed $485,300, is one of the most successful online tournament players of all times, Chris Hunichen (4,555,000). He is followed by Henrik Hecklen with 3,465,000. Hecklen is known for dominating the high stakes cash games.
The player in third is Jesus Cortes (2,885,000). Cortes is a newcomer in those toughest fields but he has already proved himself and will be looking to capture his first title in a high buy-in.
Sam Greenwood will start the day 4th in chips with 2,675,000. Greenwood has been around for very long and has plenty of experience playing at the highest stakes.
Talal Shakerchi is in 5th place with 1,670,000. Shakerchi is mainly a businessman but has over $6 million in poker winnings and has already locked another big score to add to his poker resume.
The remaining five players will continue to battle it out at 1:00 pm local time at 20,000/40,000/40,000 until a champion is crowned. You can watch the action on the stream on PokerStars.tv. with a 30-minute delay where hole cards will be available. Live updates will also be available here on PokerNews.
