€2,200 FPS High Roller
Day 3 Started
Two days of action at the 2024 PokerStars European Poker Tour Paris were not enough to complete the €2,200 France Poker Series High Roller event, so the remaining four players will return to crown a champion today.
When the clock hit 4 a.m. local time last night at Le Palais des Congres, Henrik Juncker bagged up 29,400,000 chips. His 49 big blinds are more than the other three players combined entering the added Day 3.
Among that group is PokerStars Ambassador Parker Talbot, who will sit down with 10,200,000 as play begins at 3 p.m. local time.
Joining the Canadian at the final table are Omar Del Pino (11,400,000) and short stack Guillermo Gordo (2,800,000), returning with just five big blinds.

The tournament saw a total prize pool of €3,448,320, with 268 players returning for Day 2 in the money. Now the four remaining players have all locked up at least €183,590, and will be chasing the first-place prize of €544,790.
Action will resume at 3 p.m. local time with 8:34 remaining on Level 37, which features 300,000/600,000 blinds with a 600,000 big blind ante. Play will continue with 40-minute levels, progressing to blinds of 400,000/800,000/800,000.

Guillermo Gordo moved his short stack all in from under the gun and Henrik Juncker quickly three-bet to his left. Both blinds folded leaving Gordo at risk.
Guillermo Gordo: J♣9♦
Henrik Juncker: A♦7♠
Gordo remained behind after the 7♥10♥3♥ flop and 6♣ turn, but was saved by the J♦ river much to the delight of his rail at the final table.
