We are down to just 42 players in this opening event of the Grand Slam of Poker, and the top nine players will be taking home $2,000, along with their respective $100 bounties. Kyung-Min Lee, who won the Heads-Up Event here in April for $8,000, just claimed a bounty when his Ace-Queen beat the Ace-Eight of his opponent. He is up to 62,000 after that hand, making him one of the leaders of the event right now. Check below for a list of the notables still vying for the final table.
Average: 43,000
Kyung-Min Lee – 62,000
Susanne Krausse – 56,000
Harold Roth – 48,000
Marcel Sabag – 29,000
Gladys Landegger – 27,000
