In contrast to the €100,000 Super High Roller, this €25,000 High Roller is a single reentry tournament. Where players were able to fire as many €100,000 bullets as they liked in the Super High Roller, here players are only allowed to reenter once.

on the flop and Bonomo checked to Andreev who bet 15,000 to put Bonomo allin. Bonomo snap called with the flopped nuts;

Check from Seiver and Katchalov moved all in for around 40,000.
Seiver jolted back, disgusted to be put in such a spot by his opponent. It would be a substantial portion of Seiver’s stack if he called and lost. He blew out his cheeks and folded.

Just now we saw Alex Bilokur open for 1,100 in the hijack. Gruissem made the call from the cutoff and Sam Trickett squeezed to 3,700 from the button. After both blinds folded, Bilokur four-bet to 8,100 and Gruissem instantly folded. Trickett did the same after some thinking, tabling 
and laughing about it. "I was gonna hit that flop" Trickett said with a big smile to Bilokur and the dealer.
