Today, while Day 4 of the Main Event plays out on one side of the room, the 2016 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure $25,000 High Roller will kick off on the other.
The tournament, which will be played eight-handed and allow players a single reentry option, features a 50,000 starting stack and 60-minute levels. Day 1 is scheduled to play 10 levels with a 75-minute dinner break at the end of Level 6, which means play will conclude at approximately midnight local time.
Among those expected to play are Steve O'Dwyer, who won the $50,000 Single-Day High Roller a couple days back; Bryn Kenney, who kicked off the 2016 PCA by winning the $100,000 Super High Roller; 2015 World Series of Poker Main Event champ Joe McKeehen; and Team PokerStars Pros Daniel Negreanu, Vanessa Selbst, and Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier, just to name a few.
Last year, Ilkin Garibli topped a field of 269 entries to win this tournament for $1,105,040 after a heads-up deal with Joe Kuether. Other past winners of the title include Jake Schindler (2014 - $1,192,624), Vanessa Selbst (2013 - $1,424,420), Leonid Bilokur (2012 - $1,134,930), Will Molson (2011 - $1,072,850), William Reynolds (2010 - $579,240), and Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier (2009 - $433,500).
Who will join the prestigious list of winners? The three-day journey to determining that answer begins today.
Cards will be in the air at Noon local time, which is just a couple of hours from now. Stay tuned as the PokerNews Live Reporting Team brings you all the action straight from the floor of the Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas!
