Roger Teska wins MILLIONS World
And maybe more remarkably, Steve O'Dwyer didn't win, in one of the biggest High Roller tournaments ever staged.
A staggering 394 entries were counted in partypoker's landmark $25,000 MILLIONS World (clearly a direct contender to next year's PSPC) which ultimately led to Roger Teska taking it down for $2 million.
It was also another top performance for Steve O'Dwyer who won the last two partypoker High Rollers he played but this week settled for just 2nd place and $1,300,000 (we guess he is losing his edge folks).
O'Dwyer's form in this event was not lost on Teska, who commented after the win "These guys know when to shove, what hands to shove with and I don't. Steve is a better player than I am so I wanted play bigger pots."
And here's how he did it! Whilst at one point it seemed like @steveodwyer was destined to capture another high roller title, after an intense back and forth heads up, it all came down to this. pic.twitter.com/d5IIaYyNrC

Elsewhere the $5,300 Main Event concluded Day 2A and the current numbers are 1,208, meaning the $10 million guarantee has a shot of being met, or coming close, today on Day 2B during late registration.
There is also a $250,000 Super High Roller taking place which so far has attracted 31 players and will be taking late registrations (so no doubt Steve O'Dwyer can jump in, and win, that one).

Is O'Dwyer the best Super High Roller (or is it Fedor, Bonomo, Peters, or someone else)? Let us know in the comments:
