All-Ins Coming Thick and Fast

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Plenty of action here in the early hands, Toby Giles was all-in with pocket tens versus David Rodwell's A-K.
A king on the flop put Rodwell in front and Giles stood up, hoping to gain some extra equity calling for a ten. The river provided the ten and Giles doubled up.

Jarryd Godena was all-in with {a-}{q-} up against Peter An's pocket nines. No ace or queen on board sent Godena to the re-buy counter.

On the same table, Hasan Onay picked off a bluff with ace-ten to send Meerwais Hussaini to the same place.

Welcome to Day 2 of the High Roller at The Poker Palace

Anish Kumar
Anish Kumar

The final day of the $2500 High Roller event gets underway today with 45 players returning from Day 1, which had 122 entries. More are expected to join the field taking advantage of late registration being open until the end of the first blind level today. Blinds restart at level 7 on 2,000/4,000/4,000 and are 40 minutes in duration.

Anish Kumar (903,500) is our chip leader and everyone will be chasing him down trying to get the largest piece of a prize pool that is closing in on a massive $300,000, far exceeding the estimated $150,000. Included in those will be [Removed:268] (602,000) and Morten Mortensen from Denmark (514,500) who came 2nd and 7th respectively in the corresponding event during the Marconi Christmas Cup Series last December.

Play begins at 4.00 p.m local time and will play down until a winner is crowned. Stay tuned to the updates here on PokerNews to find out who the winner will be.
