2021-03-07 18:48 UTC

Super High Rollers Set to Battle for $2.5M Guaranteed

The 2021 GGPoker Super MILLION$ Week is coming to a close, and one of the final events is Event #30: Super High Roller $25,500, $2.5M Gtd. Action kicks off at 3 p.m. Eastern time, and they'll play through to a winner before the end of the day.

So far, with about an hour to go before cards go in the air, there are more than 30 well-heeled players who have found the $25,500 buy-in in their couch cushions. Late registration is open for five hours after the game begins, so there will be plenty of time for more players to jump into the mix. As well, re-entries are unlimited, so expect to see a few players fire more than once in this one.

Everyone starts with 100,000 in chips, good for 200 big blinds in the first level of play, but just over 14 big blinds by the time registration closes at 8 p.m. Eastern. Blinds will increase every 15 minutes, so once registration closes, expect the action to move quickly.

Among the players already in the game are GGPoker Ambassadors Fedor Holz and Anatoly Filatov, as well as Ludovic "Gr4vyB04t" Geilich, Artur Martirosian, Thomas Muehloeker, Sam Greenwood, and Chris Rudolph, along with many other big names.

Stay tuned here at PokerNews for action throughout the day from this Super High Roller event. We'll be watching and bringing you the big hands and chip counts until a winner is decided.
