Gruissem won an event in the Caribbean in 2013 and will be hoping for a repeat performance here. The Germany pro\u2019s victory in the $100,000 buy-in WPT Alpha8 in St. Kitts<\/strong> banked him $1,086,400. Victory in the 2019 Caribbean Poker Party Main Event will yield and even larger prize. He is in a good position to take down this huge event as he returns to the tables with 24,175,000 chips, enough for second-place.<\/p>\n

Several of Gruissem\u2019s partypoker pro teammates have also locked up at least $20,000 for their efforts thus far. Dzmitry Urbanovich<\/strong><\/a> is the best place of them thanks to accumulating 14,625,000 chips. Isaac Haxton<\/strong><\/a> bought in at the start of Day 2 and turned his 1,000,000 chips into 6,950,000, while Ludovic Geilich<\/strong><\/a> (5,175,000), and Kristen Bicknell<\/strong> (3,200,000) are also safely through.<\/p>\n

Scott Margereson<\/strong> leads the way with 38,350,000 chips and is going to take some stopping. The British pro now resides in Mexico and is a phenomenal player, one with more than $1.8 million in live tournament winnings and an additional $5.18 million online.<\/p>\n

The rest of the field reads like a who\u2019s who of the poker world. Dutchman Jorryt van Hoof (23,000,000) is third in chips with Spain\u2019s Sergi Reixach<\/strong> (22,875,000) in fourth. Chris Hunichen<\/strong><\/a>, winner of the $25,500 Super High Roller at the 2017 Caribbean Poker Party, has 19,000,000 chips and returns in fifth-place.<\/p>\n
