Today is the turn of the high rollers who will start their three day event this afternoon. A €10,000 +€300 buy in adds an element of exclusivity, with a single re-entry permitted to those who don’t get it right first time round. The PokerStars Blog introduces the day here.

The cards are now in the air for the high rollers and the button is in seat eight. Dimitar Danchev jumped straight in after his elimination in the EPT10 Sanremo Main Event into this €10,300 buy in and faces Max Greenwood and [Removed:119] on his table.

Why is English the language of choice for exclamations? It's a question that could be put to Russian player Igor Nekazakov who just did an impression of the happiest man in the world, nearly knocking three people over in the process, as the PokerStars Blog reports here.
As usual the high rollers take it rather easy at the beginning and thus it was decided by the floor to take a 20 minute break before we kick off Day 1. Below are some of the familiar faces on the circuit that we have already seen in the tournament area.

The PokerStars.it EPT Sanremo Season 10 is entering its closing weekend, and while the Main Event is playing down from 39 to the final 16 today — which you can follow by clicking here — it's also the day the €10,000 High Roller kicks off.
The three-day event is the last €10,000 High Roller of the season as Monte Carlo's features buy-ins of €25,000 and €100,000. Of course those hefty buy-ins attract a certain type of player, whereas the "more affordable" €10,000 often attracts hopeful amateurs looking to take their shot at poker glory. As such, we expect a slew of Italian players to enter the field.
On Thursday night, a satellite for this event was held that attracted 97 players, 28 rebuys and 83 add-ons for €100,880 prize pool. That awarded nine seats into the High Roller — one of which went to former PCA runner-up Chris Oliver — with tenth place getting a €8,180 consolation prize.
In addition, we should see some establish pros such as Ole Schemion and Team PokerStars Pro Vanessa Selbst, two players who're currently engaged in a heated race for EPT10 Player of the Year. Schemion currently sits atop the leaderboard, but Selbst has been doing her best to close the gap. We'll be sure to bring you an update on that race later today.
Others we expect to see are Team PokerStars Pros Bertrand "Elky" Grospellier and Jonathan Duhamel; Team Online's Marc-Andre Ladouceur and Mickey Petersen; EPT9 Barcelona third-place finisher Joni Jouhkimainen; and former High Roller champs Thomas Muhlocker and Dominik Panka, the latter of which was recently featured in an in-depth piece on PokerNews.
Who will be the next to add their name to this prestigious list of Season 10 High Roller winners? We'll work our way to that answer in a half hour, so be sure to join us then for all the action from the Casino Sanremo.
