Schindler’s Road To Winning Super High Roller Bowl Europe
Jake Schindler returned for the third and final day of Super High Roller Bowl Europe with the chip lead. Seven players remained, and Schindler’s stack of 1,525,000 was in pole position. Only the top five places would make the money, meaning two players had to go home empty-handed.
Michael Addamo was the first player eliminated on the day. He first three-bet an open from Ali Imsirovic and then called when Imsirovic shoved. Addamo had the best of it with ace-queen against ace-ten, but Imsirovic spiked a ten on the river to find a lucky double through the Super High Roller Bowl VI champion. Addamo then lost with ace-king against Timothy Adams’ pocket queens. Adams and Addamo were exactly even in chips, sending Addamo out the door in seventh place.
Play on the stone bubble lasted for more than three hours before sixth place was realized, and it took a cooler of a hand to get the field into the money. Adams looked down to find two aces in the hole and raised. Imsirovic found two kings and reraised to more than half of his stack. Adams put Imsirovic all in, and Imsirovic called it off before he saw the bad news. The board ran out clean for Adams, leaving Imsirovic as the Super High Roller Bowl Europe “bubble boy” for the second year in a row. With Imsirovic’s elimination, the remaining five players locked up $560,000 in prize money.
Teun Mulder then busted first in the money, hitting the rail in fifth place. His ace-queen could not survive against Jake Schindler’s king-jack. The money went in preflop, Schindler flopped a jack, and the pair of jacks held from there. Mulder scooped a $560,000 prize in what was his first career Super High Roller Bowl cash.
Four-handed play lasted for a bit and it included a one-hour dinner break. When the players returned, Adams was the first to bust. He got his chips in with ace-jack and ran into Paul Phua’s ace-queen. For Adams, it was his fourth consecutive Super High Roller Bowl cash, with this one being worth $880,000.
Christoph Vogelsang fell next. On the short stack of five big blinds, he raised to 500,000 from the button with queen-nine, leaving himself with 25,000 behind should something wild happen between Schindler and Phua. Schindler reraised all in with pocket sixes, Phua folded jack-ten of clubs, and Vogelsang called off his last 25,000. An ace-eight-four-ace-five board gave Schindler the win and knocked out Vogelsang in third place for $1,280,000.
Heads-up play began with Schindler in the lead. He had 5,700,000 in chips to Phua’s 2,300,000.
Schindler began picking Phua apart immediately, with Phua quickly down to fewer than 1,500,000 in chips. Another big bluff from Schindler knocked Phua below 1,000,000 in chips and then the final hand came up.
Phua was all in with queen-four and against Schindler’s queen-jack. Schindler was in a dominating position and was able to close it out with a king-eight-three-two-six board to become Super High Roller Bowl Europe champion.

Jake Schindler Leads Final Seven Players in Super High Roller Bowl Europe
Just seven players remain in the $250,000 Super High Roller Bowl Europe, with American Jake Schindler leading the way into the third and final day of play. The top five places will make the money, with a $3,200,000 first-place prize on offer.
With seven players remaining and the top five spots making the money, a $560,000 money bubble looms for Day 3. Joining Schindler in advancing are Paul Phua, Christoph Vogelsang, Teun Mulder, Ali Imsirovic, Timothy Adams, and Michael Addamo.
2022 Super High Roller Bowl Europe Final Table

The 2022 Super High Roller Bowl Europe attracted a field of 32 entries and generated a prize pool of $8,000,000. All players to make the money in the event will earn PGT leaderboard points in addition to their cash prize. The winner of the 2022 Super High Roller Bowl Europe will earn 600 PGT leaderboard points.
Early eliminations on Day 2 included Elton Tsang, Benjamin Heath, Artur Martirosyan, and Phil Ivey. Ivey, who won Super High Roller Series Europe Event #4 for $640,000, went out at the hands of Danny Tang when Tang’s ace-queen found a queen on the river to beat Ivey’s pocket eights. Ivey remains the current frontrunner of the Super High Roller Series Europe leaderboard, but he will have to take to the remaining events on the schedule in order to build upon his lead.
After that, Marius Gierse, who won Super High Roller Series Europe Event #3 for $432,000, went bust, and then the likes of Laszlo Bujtas, Stephen Chidwick, Viacheslav Buldygin, and Cary Katz hit the rail. Gierse was knocked out by Jake Schindler, whereas Bujtas, Chidwick, Buldygin, and Katz were all eliminated by Paul Phua. Katz’s elimination sent the field down to nine players.
When the players joined to one table of nine, Phua was in the lead and Michael Addamo was the shortest stack. Addamo quickly found a double-up through Ali Imsirovic, leaving Sam Greenwood as the short stack. Greenwood then lost nearly all of his chips against Schindler and was left with the amount of just one small blind – 6,000. Greenwood battled back to more than 100,000 in chips before Phua knocked him out in ninth place. Tang then busted in eighth, running pocket sevens into Christoph Vogelsang’s pocket kings.
There was a lot of jockeying for position during seven-handed play, including Addamo doubling through Imsirovic and Schindler making a straight against Phua to move into the chip lead. Vogelsang took some chips from Schindler right before play closed out for the day, but Schindler was able to maintain the chip lead entering Day 3.
