Silz Bags the Chip Lead on Day 1a of the $2,200 Eureka High Roller
Niveau 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
The PokerStars European Poker Tour Cyprus at the Merit Royal Diamond Hotel Casino & Spa continued today with the first of two Day 1 flights for the $2,200 Eureka High Roller.
A huge 1,011 entries were collected on Day 1a, and just 152 players made it to Day 2. The Day 1a entries contributed $1,941,120 to the prize pool, which stands at $2,772,480.
The bursting of the bubble marked the end of the Day 1a flight, and saw the surviving players make the money.
As the dust settled Maximilian Silz bagged the overall chip lead, taking through a total of 1,134,000 for the Day 2 restart. Silz’s astounding stack was emphasised by the fact he amassed almost double the amount of chips as his nearest competitor, Wooram Cho, who managed to bag 599,000.

| 2 | Wooram Cho | South Korea | 599,000 | 75 |
| 3 | Anton Wigg | Sweden | 548,000 | 69 |

| 7 | Hwany Lee | South Korea | 510,000 | 64 |
| 8 | Aleksandr Denisov | Russia | 509,000 | 64 |
| 9 | Kubanychbek Abakirov | Kyrgyzstan | 482,000 | 60 |
| 10 | Parham Ghadamgahi | Iran | 459,000 | 57 |
Day 1a welcomed many familiar faces, including PokerStars Team Pro members Benjamin Spragg, Parker Talbot and Alejandro Lococo. Although, it wasn’t to be for the trio as each found their way to the rail before the day’s end.
Those more fortunate to progress to Day 2 included Anton Wigg (548,000), Sergi Reixach (405,000), Jason Wheeler (280,000) and Antoine Labat (386,000).
Labat is already having an incredibly impressive year across all the EPTs having finished second in the Estrellas High Roller for €500,000 in Barcelona just two months ago. In addition, Labat most recently finished in third place in the EPT Cyprus $10,200 Mystery Bounty for $58,900.
Day 2 will restart at 12 p.m. on October 16 and will play down until just one player remains. Play is expected to resume on Level 18, as just a couple of minutes of Level 17 remained on the clock following extensive hand-for-hand play.
The PokerNews live reporting team will be back tomorrow to bring you more coverage of the Eureka Poker Tour High Roller here at EPT Cyprus, so stay tuned.

Baranski Sends Karaarslan Home on the Stone Bubble
Niveau 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
The pot stood at approximately 110,000 with two players looking at a board that read 10♥7♣10♦.
Feyzullah Karaarslan, in early position, checked the action to Sergey Baranski, on the button. Baranski bet enough to put Karaarslan all in for his effective stack of approximately 55,000, sending Karaarslan into the tank.
After several minutes of thinking, the clock was called and Karaarslan called off the bet for his tournament life.
Feyzullah Karaarslan: A♦J♥
Sergey Baranski: 6♥6♣
The turn and river fell the Q♠ and 8♠ respectively and Karaarslan was eliminated on the stone bubble. That concludes Day 1a; full recap to follow.

Bubble Play Continues
Niveau 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Day 1a of the Eureka High Roller is still on the stone bubble as two short stacks that were all in and risk survived to double up.
Jack-Four Sets Up the Stone Bubble
Niveau 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Maximillian Silz jammed as the big stack from the small blind, and Zhiping Zheng called off his last 80,000 from the big blind.
Zhiping Zeng: A♥Q♥
Maximillian Silz: J♣4♠
The 4♣ was in the window and was followed by the 10♦8♥. The 10♣ brought in some counterfeit outs but the 6♥ river confirmed Zheng's exit to set up the stone bubble.,
