€25,500 Single-Day High Roller II

Day 1 Started

Surprise Tournament, Surprise Coverage

Late last night, Steve O'Dwyer pitched the idea of running another €25,500 Single-Day High Roller. He wanted another version of the event he had just busted from (6th for €124,050), and people seemed up for it.

The tournament organization obliged and just announced the tournament for 2pm today (in about an hour).

A lot of the high rollers here in Prague, are still in the Main Event. We'll see if this event takes off. If it does, we'll stop by for coverage. If not, there's always the chance it runs tomorrow as the staff is very flexible. Check back in an hour to see who's giving it (another) go.

The Tournament is a Go!

Level: 1

Ante: 100

"Bad River?" - "Terrible!"

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

On a board of {3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{Q-Spades}{6-Diamonds} we saw Justin Bonomo bet 14,000 from first position. Paul Newey on the button, who's going for his fifth final table in a (Super) High Roller event in a row, raised to 38,000. Bonomo contemplated what to do for just a bit before he called.

The {7-Spades} completed the board and Bonomo pushed all in. Instantly, Newey tossed his cards into the muck.

"Bad river?" Charlie Carrel asked.

"Terrible!" said Newey with a big smile and a huge laugh.
