Super High Rollers were the talk of the table, and at a neighbouring table as Fabian Quoss listened in: "I can hear about 60% of what you are saying!"

Zachary Kerik, Charlie Carrel, Isaac Haxton, and Sam Cohen all had differing opinions on what it meant to play a 100k tournament. "€100k tournaments are all about money rather than attention," said Haxton. "Yeah, but when you've got 10% of yourself, that's not a lot of money" retorted Cohen. Carrel piped up: "But 10% of 1.2 million is still a lot of money." Kerik offered his opinion: "People play them to get on Pokernews and for other players to talk about them"

Back to the action and Fady Kamar, who had stayed silent during the Super High Roller debate continuation bet a flop of {7-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and found two callers in Sam Cohen and Charlie Carrel. The {9-Hearts} on the turn was checked around, and Kamar bet out 4100 on a river of the {3-Diamonds}. Cohen called and Kamar tabled {J-Hearts}{J-Spades} but he was beat by Cohen's {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}

Meanwhile there was a roar from the Super High Roller. Every single head at the table looked over to see what the commotion was about. Whatever it means to play a Super High Roller, fellow poker players are still interested in them.
