More Action Ahead on Day 1b of the $2,200 Eureka High Roller at 7 PM

The PokerStars European Poker Tour Cyprus action continues tonight with the second flight of the $2,200 Eureka High Roller, starting at 7 p.m. EEST. With the continued success of the Eureka Main Event it is expected to attract a stacked field of some of the biggest names in poker, who have made their way to the Merit Royal Diamond Hotel Casino & Spa.

The buy-in for the tournament is $2,200, with each player starting with a stack of 30,000 chips. The blinds begin at 100/200/200. This flight will play as a turbo (20-minute levels) in hopes of providing a second opportunity to the players who were not able to find a bag in the morning flight of this event. Unlimited reentries are allowed until late registration closes after Level 10. Please note that there is no dinner break scheduled for this flight but there will be a 20-minute break at the completion of every five levels.

The plan for Day 1a and 1b is to continue playing until only 15 percent of the players are left. At that point, the action will conclude, and those who have successfully "bagged and tagged" will return on Monday for Day 2 when the remaining players will play down to a winner, who will be crowned Eureka High Roller Champion.

The Eureka High Roller event is not a new one. The last time it was held was at the 2022 EPT Prague, where Sander Ostlyngen of Norway emerged victorious and took home a grand prize of €463,850, beating a field of 1,534 participants. The first flight of the tournament has already garnered more than 900 entries and late registration is still open. Don't miss out on the opportunity to participate in this amazing event.

The action is only beginning, so don’t miss any of the updates by staying tuned in to PokerNews!

Shagulyamov Puts in the Four-bet

Niveau 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Sador Shagulyamov opened under the gun to 700 before Bogdan Jontulovic three-bet from the button to 2,200. Shagulyamov didn't wait long before putting in a four-bet to 6,100. Jontulovic sat in the tank for a moment and eventually found a call.

The 10♣4♣8♥ flop hit the felt and Shagulyamov continued for a little over half-pot at 7,300. Jontulovic called on their way to a 2♦ turn.

Shagulyamov wasted little time before tossing in the remainder of his chips. The final 15,000 was in the middle and it appeared that Jontulovic was faced with a tough decision. After about three-minutes in the tank he eventually found a call and the cards hit their backs.

Sador Shagulyamov: K♦K♣
Bogdan Jontulovic: 4♠5♠

Jontulovic was looking for help but the dealer would only bring a 6♠ on the river. Shagulyamov scooped the pot and got a pure double early in the day.

Left with crumbs, Jontulovic sent his remaining chips into the middle a few hands later and hit the rail.

Solak Springs the Trap

Niveau 2 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Gary Miller opened under the gun to 700. He got a call from Mustapha Kanit on the button, Serken Solak in the small blind, and Hael Al Labani in the big blind. They were off to a flop four ways.

The 4♦J♥3♣ flop hit the felt and action checked to Miller who continued for 1,800. Kanit called on the button before Solak put in a check-raise to 5,100. Al Labani and Miller both got out of the way but Kanit seemed to have enough to complete on the button and threw in the rest of the chips.

The A♣ landed on the turn and without thinking for too long Solak moved all in for 10,800. Kanit thought it over for a few minutes an eventually found a call. Unfortunately, he got some bad news when the cards were tabled.

Serken Solak: K♦K♣
Mustapha Kanit: 8♣8♥

Kanit was looking for help in the form of an eight but the rescue-card would not come as the dealer put out the 10♣ on the river.

Solak earned the pure double and Kanit was left with a crippled stack early in the day.
