€10,300 High Roller
Dia 2 Começado
The 2015 PokerStars.com EPT Season 12 Malta €10,300 High Roller continues today with the second of three days.
Play will commence at 12:30 p.m. local time with the 99 survivors from Day 1 and anyone else who wants to sign up or take advantage of a single re-entry option up to 15 minutes before the cards are in the air.
Two easily recognizable names top the current chip count list with WSOP Main Event champ and EPT Grand Final winner Adrian Mateos and Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier building massive stacks on the first day.
Being a High Roller, the list is also filled with accomplished pros and this early it is still anybody's ball game. The plan today is to play 10 full 60-minute levels or to the final table of eight, whichever comes first.
Prizepool information should be released in the early part of the day, but we can already confirm they will be playing for millions of Euros and fat six-figure prizes at the top.
The PokerNews Live Reporting Team will be bringing you all the High Roller action in easy to digest live update form throughout the day, so keep it locked right here to see who rolls highest.

Dan Smith opened to 4,500 and Ben Heath called from one seat over. Ivan Luca then squeezed to 15,000 on the button and was called by Heath only. On the flop both players checked. On the
turn, Heath checked and called a delayed continuation bet worth 13,300 before both again checked down the
on the river. Heath showed his
for aces and kings, which won the pot.
