Jared Bleznick on his way to defend his PLO Super High Roller Bowl title

Article cover

The Super High Roller Bowl PLO is the most expensive PLO tournament with a buy-in of $103,000. Last year, the first edition of the event was played and it brought 38 entries. The winner was Jared Bleznick, who took home the championship ring and a $1,292,000 prize.

Will we see a double win?

Players came to the PokerGO Studio at the Aria Casino in Las Vegas again this year to play the $103,000 buy-in Super High Roller Bowl PLO. This time, the entries counter stopped at number 42, making the prizepool worth $4,200,000. Cash prizes await the top 7 players, with a min-cash worth $170,000 and a $1,500,000 plus a valuable diamond ring awaiting the winner.

A number of well-known names have joined the game, such as Jason Koon, Eelis Parssinen, Joni Jouhkimainen, Jonas Kronwitter, Isaac Haxton and Daniel Negreanu, who paid 2x the buy-in. The bubble-boy was Jeremy Ausmus and on the night we also met the owners of the two smallest cash prizes. Seventh place went to Ben Tollerene and sixth place with a $250,000 prize went to Sam Soverel.

However, none of the aforementioned names made it to the final day, among the top 5 players. The chipleader is last year's winner Jared Bleznick, who has a stack of up to 4,370,000 and thus has a great chance to defend his title. He is followed by Artem Maksimov with a stack of 3,055,000. Sean Winter, Seth Davies and Josh Arieh will also play in the final table. All of them already have at least $330,000 in the bag.
