The PCA started off in a big way yesterday, with the $100,000 Super High Roller, there were 48 entries and 13 re-entries, which made this the biggest Super High Roller ever. By the end of the day there were 39 players left, but registration is still open until the start of Day 2, and it will start with the lead of Sam Greenwood, who managed to build a 1.07 million chipstack, he is followed by Mike ”Timex” McDonald and Andrew Robl, you can check out the live stream from Day 2 in the article.
Day 1 of the SHR brought plenty of action, Dan Shak, who has final tabled the last four Super High Rollers busted twice then left the tournament area, he might re-enter today before the start of the action. Bill Perkins also busted twice but he bought in for a third time aswell.
Sam Greenwood, a poker coach at Run It Once managed to build the biggest stack and he is followed by Mike ”timex” McDonald, who made several prop bets during the day with Bill Perkins.
First he had to do 300 squats in one blind level for $10,000, which he easily did, but he failed on the 350 pushups in one hour bet, he managed to do 323 pushups before the timer hit zero.
