Matthias Eibinger<\/strong> is no stranger to high buy-in poker tournaments\u2019 final tables. The Austrian is a fearless, highly-skilled competitor who is respected and feared in equal measure. Eibinger added to his already glowing reputation by winning two events on the same day, but it\u2019s Luke Reeves<\/strong> who\u2019s the man to catch at the top of the current leaderboard.<\/p>\n

High Roller Club: 6-Max Knockout $100K Gtd<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Eibinger\u2019s first victory came in the $2,100 buy-in High Roller Club: 6-Max Knockout<\/strong> event, a tournament that saw 52 player enter. Only the top six finishers received a payout from the main prize pool and it was our very own Kristen Bicknell<\/strong><\/a> who was the first to bank some cash.<\/p>\n

Bicknell was awarded $3,283 for her sixth-place exit, which was boosted by $1,250 worth of bounties.<\/p>\n

Ivan Gabrieli<\/strong> and Corne Scheel<\/strong> crashed out before Jean Loseka<\/strong> of Mozambique netted the first five-figure prize, with bounties included, namely $12,397.<\/p>\n

This left Eibinger and Aleksejs Meless<\/strong> to fight it out heads-up. Eibinger got the job done and padded his bankroll with a combined $40,491, leaving his Latvian opponent to win $18,230.<\/p>\n

High Roller Club: 6-Max Bounty Hunter $50K Gtd<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There must be something about short-handed PKO events for Eibinger because he won the $530 High Roller Club: 6-Max Bounty Hunter<\/strong> on the same evening. This second victory saw Eibinger boost his career earnings by $13,775. Eibinger outlasted 124-opponents on his way to victory, including Dario Sammartino<\/strong> and Team Online\u2019s Matthew Staples<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sammertino ran out of steam in seventh-place ($2,109) while Staples busted in sixth ($2,522).<\/p>\n

Eibinger found himself heads-up against Jonathan McCann<\/strong> and he sent him to the rail with the $8,041 consolation prize in tow.<\/p>\n

High Roller Club: Main Event $250K Gtd<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Fifty players turned out for the $5,200 High Roller Club: Main Event<\/strong> to ensure the $250,000 guarantee was hit. Only the top seven finishers received a slice of the pie with Ali Imsirovic bursting the bubble when he crashed out in eighth place.<\/p>\n

Russia\u2019s Iurii Pasiuk<\/strong> was the first player to cash. He banked $10,625. Next to fall was Luke Reeves<\/strong> who scooped $12,500. Reeves was joined on the rail by Marcello Marigliano<\/strong> (remember him from the Durrrrr challenge a few years ago?) who netted $16,250.<\/p>\n

Thomas Muehloecker<\/strong><\/a>, a recent winner of the Big Game, fell in fourth-place before Rok Gostisa<\/strong> saw his tournament end abruptly in third place to set up a one-on-one battle between Sergi Denisov<\/strong> and Andras Nemeth<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It was Nemeth who emerged from the battle victoriously and with the $88,750 top prize. Denisov had to settle for the $59,375 consolation prize.<\/p>\n

Reeves Tops Current $100,000 Leaderboard<\/h2>\n

British star Luke Reeves is the man on course for the $30,000 top prize in the High Roller Club Leaderboard<\/strong>. The top 20 finishers receive a share of $100,000, with prizes starting at $1,000 and increasing to $30,000.<\/p>\n
