Carrel Tops 15 Survivors on Day 1 of Event-24-H: $10,300 NLHE; Mateos and Kanit in Contention
Nível 20
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Another exciting day of High Roller action has finished during the 2020 PokerStars Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP) and the money bubble has burst to determine the 15 finalists in Event SCOOP Event-24-H: $10,300 NLHE High Roller. They are all guaranteed a portion of the $1,240,000 prize pool after beating the majority of the 124-entry strong field and have $22,662.11 locked up for the efforts.
Two-time SCOOP champion Charlie "Epiphany77" Carrel will lead the charge for the top prize of $271,790.44 with a stack of 5,630,571 when the action resumes the following day at 1 p.m. Eastern Standard time and the Brit was also responsible for the money bubble to burst. However, especially early on, things didn't look as good as Carrel was on the verge of re-entry but managed to spin up a shorter stack before turning on the heat in the late stages.
Second in chips is Russian player "Futti18" with 4,727,954 and third-placed Adrian "Amadi_017" Mateos (3,191,654) also already has a SCOOP title under his belt. The remaining field is not shy of big names and High Roller regulars either. Wiktor "limitless" Malinowski sits in fourth with 2,777,856 followed by Luke "Bit2Easy" Reeves (2,505,299), Mustapha "lasagnaaammm" Kanit advanced with 1,816,852 and seeks a third SCOOP title.
Other notables in contention are Joao "Naza114" Vieira (1,685,473), Sergi "srxakgirona" Reixach (1,331,057), Teun "tinnoemulder" Mulder (974,679), Finnish high stakes cash game specialist "makeboifin" (901,644), Vicent "gordon0410" Bosca (848,941) and recent SCOOP champion Ilya "Leqenden" Anatsky (435,453).
Big names that joined the rail throughout the day were the 2020 SCOOP champions "Körrinho", Jorryt "TheCleaner11" van Hoof and Artur "mararthur1" Martirosyan, as well as the online superstars Simon "C. Darwin2" Mattsson and Niklas "Lena900" Astedt.
The field was rapidly reduced from the last four to two tables with several eliminations in quick succession as Steve "Mr. Tim Caum" O'Dwyer, Mikita "fish2013" Badziakouski, Matthias "iambest2" Eibinger, Orpen "OrpTheTurk" Kisacikoglu, and Fedor "CrownUpGuy" Holz all departed.
Jump right into the action at PokerStars!
Holz lost a flip with eights versus ace-queen as Joao "Naza114" Vieira flopped a queen, and failed to repeat his deep run of the previous day when he finished second in Event #17. Moments later Kisacikoglu four-bet jammed a suited ace into the queens of Adrian "Amadi_017" Mateos. A turned flush was no good as Mateos rivered a full house.
Badziakouski with ace-king and Joris “BillLewinsky” Ruijs wit pocket tens fell victim of the hot run of Carrel, who held aces and vaulted to the top of the leaderboard. Anatoly "NL_Profit" Filatov was also among those to leave empty-handed, along with O'Dwyer and Pedro "pvigar" Garagnani.
Chun Lei "SamRostan" Zhou was then the unfortunate bubble boy when his kings failed to hold up against the ace-seven suited of Carrel in a three-bet pot when the chips went in after a paired queen-high board. Carrel's flushdraw didn't hit but he instead caught an ace right away on the turn to end the day on the spot.
The action resumes on May 6th, 2020, as of 1 p.m. EST with blinds of 20,000/40,000 and a running ante of 5,000. All levels from now and until the conclusion of the tournament will last 30 minutes each. The PokerNews team will be there to provide the action from start to finish.

Carrel Busts Zhou to Burst the Bubble
Nível 20
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Another open raise to 88,000 by Charlie "Epiphany77" Carrel this time resulted in a three-bet of Chun Lei "SamRostan" Zhou, who clicked it up to 312,566 in the small blind. Carrel came along to the 
flop and Zhou continued for 312,568 with 916,564 behind. Carrel moved all in and Zhou made the call for the first showdown on the money bubble.
Chun Lei "SamRostan" Zhou: 
Charlie "Epiphany77" Carrel: 
Along with the nutflush draw, Carrel also had one overcard and struck gold on the 
turn to take the lead. Zhou needed a king or ten to avoid the elimination but a blank 
on the river let the bubble burst.
All remaining 15 remaining hopefuls are now putting their virtual chips in their virtual bags and will be back at 1 p.m Eastern Standard Time to play down to a champion.
The chip counts and a recap of today's action are to follow.

Kanit Loses to Vieira and Malinowski
Nível 20
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Joao "Naza114" Vieira raised it up to 82,400 out of the under-the-gun position and was called by Mustapha "lasagnaaammm" Kanit in the big blind. The 
flop and 
turn were checked, Kanit then paid off a bet of 78,670 by Vieira and mucked when he was shown for a full house.
"Futti18" made it 98,000 to go in the cutoff and Kanit three-bet to 312,843 from the button. Wiktor "limitless" Malinowski in the big blind four-bet to 581,810 and that shut down all further action.

Pots for Malinowski and Zhou
Nível 20
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Adrian "Amadi_017" Mateos came along out of the big blind when faced with a min-raise by Wiktor "limitless" Malinowski and the 
flop brought a check-call for 73,260 by the Spaniard.
On the 
turn both checked and Mateos led the 
river for 60,000. A raise to 311,260 by Malinowski did the trick.
Over on the other table, Charie "Epiphany77" Carrel made it 88,000 to go and Chun Lei "SamRostan" Zhou called in the small blind. Zhou went for the check-raise from 87,040 to 228,966 on the 
flop and picked up a call. Zhou's bet of 314,567 on the 
turn resulted in no call and he dragged in the pot.

Another Double for "makeboifin"
Nível 20
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
The three shortest stacks two away from the money remain at the same table and "makeboifin" locked up another double to drag Ilya "Leqenden" Anatsky into the danger zone.
It was, as usual, a flip with the 
for "makeboifin" and the 
for Anatsky in the small blind. The 
board changed nothing.
In the meanwhile, Charlie "Epiphany77" and "Futti18" have pulled further ahead of the remaining opponents with more than four million chips each.

"makeboifin" Doubles Through Reixach
Nível 19
: 17,500/35,000, 4,500 ante
As the shortest stack, "makeboifin" jammed for the last five big blinds and turned over 
when he was isolated by Sergi "srxakgirona" Reixach out of the small blind.
Reixach flipped with but failed to bring the field to the money bubble as the board kept pocket tens ahead all the way.
