The PokerStars European Poker Tour Prague at the Hilton Prague continues today, December 11, with the $25,000 Super High Roller Second Chance at 7:00 p.m. Today’s event is the third of the series that boasts a title of Super High Roller champion for the eventual victor.
The first $25,000 Super High Roller Warm Up attracted a total of 34 entries. It was Espen Jorstad who eventually lifted the trophy and claimed the €277,500 first-place prize. Jorstad's resume in poker certainly needs no introduction, but as he continues to carve his legacy among the poker elite, this Super High Roller win will be forever remembered as his maiden victory on the European Poker Tour Circuit.
The anticipation of this large figure buy-in tournament was leading up to the prestigious €50,000 EPT Super High Roller. It was Thomas Santerne who bested the 25-player star-studded field to claim €385,725 and a PokerStars golden shard; his second €50,000 EPT Super High Roller title after winning the same event in Paris this year.
