On Friday, the Eastern Poker Open continued with its $1,650 High Roller, a tournament that attracted 86 entrants and created a $129,000 prize pool. After more than 13 hours of play, the field was whittled down to the final table of nine.
Each player is guaranteed $3,900 in prize money, but awaiting the winner is a $45,000 top prize. Jordan Fishman is best positioned to make a run at it, sitting with 1,880,000 and the chip lead. Dennis O’Hare sits second with 1,325,000 while two other players are in seven-figure territory.

Among those to compete but fall on Day 1 were Sandra Drum, Sean Miller, Kevin Cronin, Nikita Kutukov, Brian Ng, Jake Dennehy, and John Germano, who back in December won the 2024 Bar Poker Open Florida Championship for $30,001.
When it was down to 10 players, two tables played five-handed until the bubble burst. It didn’t take long before Andrew Camacho got his stack all in preflop holding ace-queen only to run smack dab into the pocket aces of O’Hare. A queen appeared on the flop, but Camacho failed to find another to end his run one spot short of the money.
The final table of nine will return at 2 p.m. local time on Saturday to play down to a winner on a live-streamed final table. PokerNews will also be offering live updates every step of the way.
What's Coming Up?
Saturday will also see the start of the Eastern Poker Open Championship, which will award a $34,000 prize pool. That tournament also supports local charities, with a portion of the proceeds going to causes in the community.
The Invite-Only $34,000 Championship will see the top 16 players from Day 1 advance to Day 2 while also each pocketing $150. The Day 1 chip leader will score a Bar Poker Open Seat & Hotel Package, which includes a ticket to the summer Bar Poker Open festival in Las Vegas.
The Championship will kick off on Saturday, April 5 at 10 a.m. Qualifiers will play for a chance to advance to Day 2, where they’ll compete for that sweet $34,000 prize pool. On Sunday, April 6, the final round will be televised, and the top 16 players will be joined by Monthly Championship winners, Regional Winners, and Wild Card Spots from the “Open” Charity Tournaments.

A preflop raising war resulted in Andrew Camacho getting all in against Dennis O'Hare, who barely had the bigger stack with 725,000.
Andrew Camacho: A♣Q♥
Dennis O'Hare: A♠A♥
Camacho was in a bad spot but hope remained alive when the 10♠7♣Q♠ flop paired his queen. Unfortunately for him, that would be all the help he'd get as the 9♠ bricked the turn followed by the 5♦ on the river.
Camacho bubbled the tournament in 10th place and play has ended for the night. The final nine players will bag before returning on Saturday at 2 p.m. local time to play down to a winner.
Level 18

Bubble play has begun, as the final 10 players will see one more elimination before action concludes for the night.
The remaining nine will return in the money to battle on Day 2.
Level: 18
Blinds: 15,000/30,000
Ante: 30,000
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Sam Journeay moved all in for around 240,000 from the button and Andrew Camacho called from the small blind.
Sam Journeay: K♥J♥
Andrew Camacho: A♠A♥
Journeay was in a bad spot and the 3♦10♦3♥ flop didn't do him many favors. The K♠ turn kept him drawing live to another king, but the 9♣ river saw him hit the rail in 12th place.
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Brian Haughey opened to 50,000 in early position and was called by Jordan Fishman in the big blind.
The 3♠A♠J♥ flop saw both players check, with the action repeating on the 4♦ turn. Fishman checked one last after seeing the 2♥ river, and Haughey checked behind.
"Ten-high," said Fishman before Haughey turned over K♣K♥ to claim the pot.
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Andrew Camacho moved all in for his last 237,000 chips before Justin Carey shoved his larger stack. Action folded around the table, leaving Camacho at risk heads up.
Andrew Camacho: 8♣7♣
Justin Carey: A♠K♦
Camacho connected for two pair on the 7♠10♣8♦K♠J♦, besting Carey's pair of kings to earn the double up.
Level 17
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
