CARIBBEAN ADVENTURE A SUCCESS

PokerStars Caribbean Adventure 2012 is currently in progress, at the Atlantis Casino and Resort in the Bahamas, along with $ 100000 Super High Roller championship attracting some of the huge poker professional players to the felt.

On Thursday afternoon, at the time, when the championship began, twenty-four poker players were formatted across the tables without a faint field in sight. Eugene Katchalov, the defending champ faced off against Galen Hall, the defending PCA champion as well as Will Molson, the 2011 $ 25000 PCA High Roller champ; Daniel Negreanu guided a contingent of Canadian players (Shawn Buchanan and Mike McDonald) against Erik Seidel and Yevgeny Timoshenko, meanwhile Jonathan Duhamel, the 2010 World Champion squared off against Bertrand Grospellier, Isaac Haxton and Viktor Blom.

With the poker players beginning with 250000 in chips; there was some contending through the early on process. Hall was capable of picking off a sheer from Bill Perkins on a K-3-10-8-J to determine his pile over the 370K score. At that same point of time, Negreanu pecked up few chips from McDonald when his K-Q bewitched on the flop to outplay McDonald’s A-10.

Amazingly, the championship provided a late registration time – and a re-buy – and many players grab advantage of both. Sam Stein, Dan Shak and Matt Glanz were few of the players who determined  that better late than never, whereas Duhamel, after getting ruled out while having Big Slick against Haxton’s pocket Queens, determined to give another $ 100 K to the cause. Till the period the late rebuy/registration time had ended, thirty-two introductions had been found to build a prize kitty of $ 3.1 million. Unluckily, 5 men from this field will be grabbing something for their efforts.
