103 Entries in the �2,200 High Roller
The second-biggest �2,200 High Roller in the history of the 888poker LIVE festival has emerged as the remaining two levels and break on Day 2 boosted the field size from 76 entries to 103 entries. Two years ago at the Casino Barcelona, the very same tournament attracted 113 entries and it was Maria Lampropulos that defeated Alberto Flores Trujillo to scoop the top prize of �54,112.
Only 38 players remain in level 16 with an average stack of 45 big blinds and it will be a long night to reach the final table, and if possible, play down to a champion. The 888poker ambassadors Daria Feshchenko and Sofia Lovgren sit next to each other on a table that also includes Tom-Aksel Bedell and Sonny Franco.
Furthermore still in contention to earn a share of the �195,700 prize pool are Marcin Jaworski, Jon Gurrutxaga, Daniyar Aubakirov, and Andrei Nodea. Martin Jacobson battles with fellow 888poker ambassador Dominik Nitsche on the same table while three Brits are one table over in Chris Moorman, Charlie Combes and Carl Shaw.
