The trash talking, high VPIP-ing, Nik Airball joined the team, fresh from his stint in the Hustler Million Dollar game. Will we see him in the next High Stakes Championship, and will the GTO guys know what to do with him?
Speaking of knowing the right moves, today CoinPoker have released their latest deep hand review of the championships, with analysis from Kaki Tee, Sunni and Deki:
Biluzin leapfrogs the leaders
The race to the title just got interesting, as Biluzin completed his amazing smash and grab to take the top spot from nowhere. With $335,371 in EV, he is a little under two buy-ins ahead of long time leader TaxHere. DavyJones922 sits in third and needs an eight buy-in upswing to be in contention with just four days to go.
You can see all the highlights from yesterday below:
