Merit Crystal Cove Resort and Casino in North Cyprus is hosting the Super High Roller Series (SHRS) Europe. Danny Tang is currently leading among the final five players into Day 2 of Event #5: $50,000 Short Deck. Tang is a Natural8 ambassador and also a World Series Of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner. Hong Kong’s Tang is one of the well-known Asian players. Among Natural8’s team Hot members, Tang is the first player to clinch a WSOP bracelet.
In the event Event #5: $50,000 Short Deck, Tang holds a lead which is double of what Lun Loon has. Trailing in third is Jason Koon, followed by Paul Phua and Seth Davies. Take a look at the SHRS Europe Event #5 Day 2 Chip counts:

Poker maestro Phil Ivey also tried his hands at this event. After winning Event #4: $50,000 Pot-Limit Omaha, he switched to this Short Deck tournament. Ivey busted when his king-jack ran into Wai Kiat Lee’s pocket aces. Tang took the chip lead position as Lee got eliminated. Tang’s ace-king improved to a straight which cracked Lee’s pocket queens. Other well-known players who could not make it to the final table (FT) are Stephen Chidwick, Cary Katz, and Chris Brewer.
