Level 19
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Leonid Bilokur raised with 
on the first hand of the day, and the table let him take the blinds and antes.
Level: 19
Blinds: 6,000/12,000
Ante: 2,000
With over $3.6 million in career tournament earnings, Isaac Haxton ranks 118th on the all-time money list. His biggest cash came at the 2009 World Series of Poker, where he finished second to Vitaly Lunkin in the $40,000 no limit hold��em event for $1.16 million. Haxton famously used his ��one time�� at the final table, binking two pair on the river in this hand. Haxton has had success at the PCA as well �C he finished second to Ryan Daut in the 2007 PCA Main Event, taking home $861,789 for his efforts.
Haxton enters the final table fifth in chips, and that��s remarkable considering he was second-to-last in chips entering Day 2. By our count, Haxton doubled three times during the day, including this hand where Haxton three-bet shoved with 
, and Nicolas Chouity, the original raiser, called with 
. The 
flop gave Haxton a set, and he held as the turn and river both bricked.
Haxton is dangerous now that he has chips, and is looking to add a second win and a second million-dollar cash to his r��sum��.
Leonid Bilokur cashed in seven events in 2011, including the World Cup of Poker VII here at the Atlantis where he and Team Ukraine finished third. Bilokur has racked up $370,609 in career tournament earnings, and his biggest cash was in a �2,000 no limit hold��em event in Berlin, where he finished first for �174,000 ($236,019). Bilokur has had recent success on both the European Poker Tour and the World Poker Tour, cashing in EPT Prague and WPT Prague in December.
Bilokur started day Day 2 of the High Roller with a double through Andrew Lichtenberger, then treaded water all day until he played a massive pot with Nick Yunis. After a series of raises, Bilokur five-bet shoved for over half of a million chips with 
, and Yunis called with 
. Bilokur held, and now has over a million chips.
PokerStars Team Online member Randy ��nanonoko�� Lew has had a busy PCA. True, this is the only tournament he��s cashed in, but last Sunday, he set a Guinness World record for the most poker hands played in an eight-hour span, playing 23,493 hands and profiting $7.65. Today, he��s guaranteed to profit over $83,000, and could profit as much as $1.1 million with a victory.
Lew, who is known for his skills on the virtual felt, made his first big splash on the actual felt last November, winning the Asia Pacific Poker Tour Maccau Main Event for $484,617. He also finished 10th at the Aussie Millions last year, banking $98,902.
Like Haxton, Lew was short coming in to Day 2 of the High Roller. In fact, he had the shortest stack, but he doubled through Chris McClung in the first level of play. Lew floated in the middle of the pack for most of the day, but then doubled the aforementioned Yunis during the last hour of play. Lew is once again the shortstack at the table, but he��s proved that he has stamina and staying power.
To say that Team PokerStars Pro Jonathan Duhamel is having an amazing PCA would be an understatement. The 2010 World Series of Poker Main Event champion has played in five events, making four final tables and cashing for at least $680,200. Duhamel final tabled the $100,000 Super High Roller event, finishing fourth when fellow Team PokerSatrs Pro Viktor Blom called his all in with a flush draw on the flop, and hit said flush on the turn.
Unlike some WSOP Main Event champions, Duhamel doesn��t take the role of poker ambassador lightly. He has already committed to playing the $1 Million Big One for One Drop at the 2012 WSOP, and urges other world champions to follow suit. Duhamel has continued to perform on the felt as well, winning the High Roller at EPT Deauville in 2011 for $272,209.
Duhamel enters the final table second in chips, and with the eyes on his prize.
Prior to the 2011 World Series of Poker, Nicolas Fierro was barely a blip on the PokerNews' radar, but then he came out of nowhere. First, Fierro took third in the $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em Shootout at the WSOP for $198,096. He followed that deep run up with one in the WSOP Main Event where he finished 34th for $242,636.
Prior to those two scores, Fierro had $122,844 in live tournament earnings on record. He even cashed in the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event back in 2010. After his successful summer, Fierro has gone on to win the $4,700 No-Limit Hold'em event at the Latin American Poker Tour IV Punta del Este/Americas Cup of Poker and also make a WSOP Europe final table. His final table run in Cannes saw him finish in third place and earn �53,426.
