High Roller Update
Amazingly, Martin Kabrhel has the chip lead at the moment. Kabrhel hasn't made much of an impact on EPT main events, but he's consistently crushing the side events this season. He won the €2,000 event at back-to-back stops in Vilamoura and Prague. And last month in Deauville, he took down the €25,000 High Roller tournament. A win here would put him in first place for EPT player of the year, a remarkable feat considering his only Main Event cash was a 60th place in Deauville.
Jeff Sarwer is currently third in chips, and just behind him is Team PokerStars Pro Arnaud Mattern. Andrew Feldman just busted in 9th place. Here are the latest chip counts, courtesy of our friends at PokerNews.nl:
Martin Kabrhel - 240,000
