Poker Dream 16 Super High Roller Final 9 Starts at 1PM Today

Poker Dream 16 Super High Roller Final 9

After a total of 123 entries ponied up the KR₩14,500,000 (~USD 9,998) buy-in we got to a total prize pool of KR₩ 1,626,195,300 (~USD1,134,545) with KR₩409,200,000 (~USD285,496) up top and everyone taking a seat later will have KR₩40,700,000 (~USD28,398) guaranteed for 9th place already.


Wang Yilong was the only one breaching the eight-figures bagging 10,075,000 who came back from 2,200,000 just a few minutes before the end last night, starting with a triple up that eliminated Yong Wei Keong in 11th and then bursting the final table bubble, knocking out Xu Qiang in 10th.


Martin Zamani had been chip leader for most of the ITM play, but lost a few in the end, still bringing 9,800,000 to the table in 2nd.


The Final 9 will resume play on level 23 (100k/200k/200k) very even in chips with an average of 34BB at 1pm local on the 22nd of February.
