Best Friends All Around!

Level 2 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

"Artem, are you playing?" Dan Smith yelled to Russian pro Artem Litvinov who was standing on the rail with Ilya Gorodetskiy.

"No I'm not playing, I'm doing commentary on the stream and say how good Dan Smith is!" Litvinov yelled back as the players in the room chuckled.

Smith kept asking Litvinov about why he wasn't in this tournament and the former EPT San Remo third place finisher and player of many high roller events started to explain.

"There are only best friends here! Jason Mercier, he's my best friend. Dan Smith is my best, best friend. Philipp, he's also my best, best friend and Viktor, he's my best, best, best friend! And Phil Ivey is the legend," Litvinov carried on as everyone in the tournament started laughing.

The €100,000 Super High Roller has a very friendly atmosphere and Litvinov could still enter all the way up until the start of Day 2.
