Play is underway in the High Rollers Event, with 35 registrations to date creating a very healthy prize pool in excess of half a million dollars. The top four players will be paid and play is expected to continue until well into the morning until they reach the money stage of the tournament.
One player who won't have to worry about a late finish is Sam Youssef. He's the first casualty of the event after his pocket queens were rivered by Van Tran's pocket tens.
In addition to the players mentioned earlier, some of the late registrations include Jeff Lisandro, Andrew Scott, John Juanda, Emanuel Seal and David Steicke.
