Caviar for Baldwin; Beans for Schemion
Players playing the $500,000 Super High Roller Bowl at the ARIA Resort & Casino don't just play a rake-free event, but they also get food and drinks for free. Almost every player is making use of this, as plenty of little side tables have been rolled into the room with food on them.
The strategy with picking what food to order seems to vary, but Mexican is definitely the most popular option. Numerous players chow down on steak and chicken fajitas, while Tobias Reinkemeier opted to go for the super-high-roller burrito bowl, with steak.
Two of the highest of rollers in this event, Phil Ivey and Daniel Negreanu, had their own prepared food brought in and they were spotted scarfing down meals from plastic containers.
Lastly, the two most interesting food choices belonged to Bobby Baldwin and Ole Schemion, two players that could not be more different.
Baldwin, former World Series of Poker Main Event champion and Chief Design & Construction Officer and Director, MGM Resorts International, opted for some caviar and salmon sashimi, while Schemion, the laid back German poker phenom, scooped white beans out of a soup bowl.
