84 Confirmed for WSOP Europe €111,111 High Roller at King’s Casino
This was published 09-06-2017King’s Casino has congratulated Dough Polk on claiming victory at the exciting conclusion of the $111,111 One Drop High Roller and extended an invitation to Polk to attend the next One Drop high roller at the World Series of Poker in November 2017.
Leon Tsoukernik, the Czech entrepreneur and owner of King’s Casino, commented that all of them at King’s would love to congratulate Doug Polk on his fabulous win and that they extend a very warm welcome to him to play their €111k One Drop at the WSOPE in November.
Tsoukernik went on to say that this One Drop high roller will be the richest non-invitational tournament in European poker history and with 84 deposits already put down and the field capped at 111, they encourage players to commit sooner rather than later.
Three players from the One Drop final table, runner-up Bertrand “Elky’ Grospellier, Andrew Robi and Rainer Kempe, join 81 other philanthropists, businessmen and poker professionals in November to fight for gold while using their poker ability in order to give back and do some good.
One Drop made history with the first $1million buy-in tournament in 2012 and has been a charitable partner of the WSOP since then.
The World Series of Poker has since relinquished its fees and $505,570 was raised from this year’s tournament for the One Drop Foundation which promotes access to safe drinking water around the globe. The WSOP has, since then, proudly hosted a Big One and Little One for One Drop each year.
Tsoukernik is honored to take what has been first and foremost a Las Vegas highlight and bring it to Kings Casino in Rozvadov, which houses the largest poker room in Europe, with 160 tables.
Other recent additions to the Europe version include recent bracelet winners, Gus Hansen, Bobby Baldwin, Igor Kurganov, Liv Boeree, Lauren Roberts as well as Dan Shak.
The €111,111 High Roller for One Drop that commences on Friday, 3rd November 2017, is a re-entry tournament offering a guarantee of €10,000,000 and has a cap of 111 players.
The €1,100 Little One for One Drop No-Limit Hold’em with a €500,000 Guarantee and two starting flights will also be offered by King’s Casino on Wednesday 1st and Thursday 2nd November 2017.
