Welcome to Day 1 of 2018 EPT Prague €50,000 Super High Roller
On the fourth day of PokerNews' coverage of 2018 PokerStars European Poker Tour Prague, we bring you the biggest buy-in event of the festival, the start of the €50,000 Super High Roller.
This very special event will feature some of the best of the best no-limit hold'em players duking it out in an exclusive field for huge prizes. Superstars of the game like Sam Greenwood, Steve O'Dwyer and Timothy Adams have been battling in other events in the series and may be in attendance today.
Last year, Adams took this one down for €555,000 in a field of 34 runners, topping a final table that included Greenwood, Adrian Mateos and Mikita Badziakouski.
The unlimited reentry event is scheduled to start at 12:30 p.m. local time here in the Czech capital, although with how the super high rollers typically go, it remains to be seen whether that will actually be the case. Day 1 will be a short one as only eight levels are on the docket, each lasting one hour. Players start with 250,000 in their stacks and a double level of 500/1,000/1,000 kicks things off. A 30-second clock will be in play, and players get six time banks for their bigger decisions.
Entries and reentries are permitted throughout the day and up until the start of Day 2. Stay tuned to PokerNews to follow the nosebleed action from Hilton Prague.

Tuan Tran opened under the gun for 2,500 and got one call form Matthias Eibinger before Elias Talvitie made it 11,000 on the button. It went three ways to the 
flop and action checked to Talvitie. He bet 8,000 and only Tran continued. Tran check-called 37,000 on the 
, bringing an 
river. That prompted him to bet 47,000 but he tank-folded to a shove from Talivitie that looked to be worth around 150,000.
