Timo Kamphues<\/strong> finds himself in pole position in the WPT #14 High Roller Championship<\/strong> where only 20 of the 114 entrants remain in the hunt for what is a bankroll-boosting first place prize worth $268,960.<\/p>\n

Kamphues finished Day 1 armed with 1,278,532 chips, the only player to bag up a seven-figure stack, although second-placed Jonathan Proudfoot<\/strong> came close with 932,743 chips.<\/p>\n

The entry list read like a who’s who of the online poker world, such is the lure of a high-stakes World Poker Tour event. Team partypoker’s Mikita Badziakouski<\/strong><\/a>, Isaac Haxton<\/strong><\/a>, and the newest addition Yuri Dzivielevski<\/strong><\/a> almost reached Day 2 but ultimately fell short.<\/p>\n

Sergei Koliakov<\/strong>‘s elimination in 21st place brought the curtain down on Day 1; it burst the money bubble, too.<\/p>\n

The 20 surviving players, and what an incredibly talented bunch they are, return to their seats at 20:05 BST each guaranteed $20,000 for their efforts. Reaching the final table increases that payout to $40,768, with the top three finishers reeling in a six-figure score.<\/p>\n

Kamphues may lead right now but some of the online poker world’ best players are hot on the Austrian’s heels. Former MILLIONS Online champion Jon Van Fleet<\/strong><\/a> (731,578), Brazil’s Pedro Garagnani<\/strong> (685,105), Eelis Parssinen<\/strong> (664,853), Teun Mulder<\/strong> (653,997), and Simon Mattsson<\/strong> (611,220) each have top ten stacks.<\/p>\n

Then you have the likes of Andras Nemeth<\/strong>, Christian Rudolph<\/strong>, Joakim Andersson<\/strong>, Sam Greenwood<\/strong>, Dan Smith<\/strong>, and Timothy Adams<\/strong> still in the mix. Everything points towards Day 2 being an epic encounter.<\/p>\n

Schemion Tops the $5M Gtd Main Event Day 1B Chip Counts<\/h1>\n

\"Ole<\/p>\n

Fresh from winning the $25,500 Super High Roller<\/strong><\/a> event for almost $390,000, Ole Schemion<\/strong> stormed to the top of the WPT #07 Main Event Day 1B chip counts. Schemion finished top of the counts courtesy of amassing 3,273,638 chips before the second of four flights concluded. The Austria-based German’s stack is enough for fifth place overall with two flights remaining.<\/p>\n

Bulgaria’s Georgi Sandev<\/strong> was the only other Day 1b entrant who finished with more than three million chips in his stack.<\/p>\n

Three-time WPT Main Event champion Brian Altman<\/strong> has put himself in a good position for a fourth title. Altman finished Day 1B with 2,782,767 chips.<\/p>\n

Our very own Joao Simao<\/strong><\/a> enjoyed himself on Day 1B, finishing with 2,543,762 chips, good enough for fifth place in the chip counts. Teammate Mikita Badziakouski<\/strong> turned his 200,000 starting stack into 787,617 chips.<\/p>\n

Others to look out for on Day 2, which runs on September 13, include David Coleman<\/strong> (2,216,335), Luc Greenwood<\/strong> (1,961,198), Christian Rudolph<\/strong> (1,089,802), Timothy Adams<\/strong> (1,018,014), Pascal Hartmann<\/strong> (952,605), and former WPTWOC Main Event champion Christian Jeppsson<\/strong><\/a> (405,624).<\/p>\n

Day 1C of the $5,300 Main Event shuffles up and deals at 19:05 BST on September 12 with the turbo-structured Day 1 running from 16:05 BST on September 13.<\/p>\n

There is a Day 1C Mega Satellite schedule at 16:05 BST on September 12, too. It has 50x $5,300 seats guaranteed<\/strong> for the $530 buy-in, although you can win your way into it from only $0.01 thanks to our centrolls and the fact the satellites are phased. Good luck.<\/p>\n
