Danny Tang Leads Final 9 in SHRS Europe Event #3: $25,000 No-Limit Hold’em
The first No-Limit Hold’em tournament of the 2022 Super High Roller Series Europe took place at the Merit Royal Hotel Casino & Spa in North Cyprus with Event #3: $25,000 No-Limit Hold’em attracting a 64-entrant field that created a prize pool of $1.6 million.
Hong Kong’s Danny Tang ended the day as the chip leader with 1,885,000 in chips ahead of his closest rivals with Liviu Ignat amassing 1,100,000 in chips, and Matthias Eibinger finishing with 1,005,000. There are nine players remaining with the players having locked up $64,000 in prize money, while all eyes remain on the $432,000 first-place prize. Once the final table is reached, Event #3 will conclude on Sunday, April 10, with the action being live-streamed on PokerGO’s YouTube channel.
PGT regulars Nick Petrangelo, Jake Schindler, Michael Addamo, Johan Guilbert, Cary Katz, Chris Brewer, Rok Gostisa, and Stephen Chidwick were all eliminated throughout the day, along with Super High Roller Series Europe winners including Phil Ivey, Tuen Mulder, Tom Vogelsang, and Mikita Badziakouski. Once the field was down to the final 11 players, it would be two-time Super High Roller Bowl champion Timothy Adams eliminated on the money bubble when his ace-nine was outdrawn by the queen-ten of Tang that rivered a straight.
Play continued with Sirzat Hissou being eliminated in 10th place for $48,000 before play was halted for the evening with nine players remaining and the final table in sight. Leading those players is WSOP bracelet winner Danny Tang who amassed a commanding chip lead with 1,885,000 in chips. Triton Cyprus Event #6 winner Matthias Eibinger sits third overall with 1,005,000, while the current leader on the PGT sits fourth overall as Ali Imsirovic locks up his third cash of the series and 15th for the year. Triton Cyprus Event #1 champion Andras Nemeth sits fifth overall, while other notables still in contention include Jason Koon and Super High Roller Bowl Bahamas champion Daniel Dvoress.
