High Rollin'
Ashton Griffin took down the NAPT Venetian High Roller Bounty Shootout back in February (see here) and he'll be in the mix today looking for back-to-back titles.
Plenty of Team PokerStars Pros will be in the mix today along with a bunch of players that won their seat last night in a live satellite. PokerStars guaranteed 10 seats to the High Roller satellite for a buy-in of $5,000. Needing to get 50 players in the satellite to reach the guarantee, only 33 showed up creating an overlay of $85,000. Instead of needing to be one out of five to win a seat, you only had to be one out of three and a third, making for some sick value in the satellite.
Play is set to begin shortly at 12:00 p.m. The format will be the same as it was back at Venetian. Each bounty is worth $5,000 and you must win your table to advance to the final table. Be sure to keep your browser posted right here for all the live coverage!
