The High Roller has come to an end for Day 2 with 12 players finding a bag for Day 3 that takes place tomorrow at 1:00pm when they will play down to a champion for $75,000 and the WSPOP-C Playground champion ring.
The field was made up of both solid local and out of town players who battled it out through 13 levels of 45 minutes. The top 23 players made it into the money and it took quite some time for the bubble to bust. Donald Cowie had the early lead and then it moved over to Edward Hislop who was in the lead for half of the day, but when it came down to the crunch, it was WPT Champion and local Playground player Eric Afriat who stepped it up and put himself into the driver’s seat. Afriat finished the night bagging the lead with 2,705,000 chips, more than 600,000 ahead of the second place runner and Day 1 chip leader Tu Kham Tran, who bagged 2,065,000.
The cards will be in the air for day 3 at 1:00pm tomorrow, join us here to follow the action as they play down to a champion.
