Big names in EPT Barcelona High Roller Final Nine

The top 17 players were guaranteed a pay-out in this PokerStars EPT High Roller Event, with a minimum cash of €18,900. At the end of Day 2, just 9 players remain, all of who will be eyeing the top prize of €302,500. Top pros who made it in the money but busted on Day 2 include Cary Katz (10th), Joao Vieira (11th), Daniel Dvoress (12th), Adrian Mateos (14th) and Mustapha Kanit (15th).

From the survivors, a few experienced pros will return on Day 3 to play for the title and the massive top prize. One of these is PokerStars Team Pro Liv Boeree, who has over $3.7 million in live poker cashes, while the current chip leader is Iran’s Bahram Chobineh, who has considerably less experience in the live poker circuit.

1. Luc Greenwood – 590,000
