Mr. Jackpot Poker Tournament: High Stakes and Big Names
The Mr. Jackpot poker tournament with a buy-in of 111k was initially scheduled to be held at the end of the series but was later rescheduled to coincide with the Super High Roller Bowl.
The tournament started with blinds at 1,000/2,000 and an initial stack of 500,000 chips. Garry Yaroshovsky, Alexey Khoroshenin, and Igor Kurganov represented the Russian community in the tournament.
Antonio Esfandiari eliminated Fedor Holz in the early stages of the tournament. Leon Tsukernik, Rainer Kempe, Doug Polk, and Dietrich Fast were among the chip leaders on the first day. Martin Jacobson ended the first day as the chip leader with 1,677,000 chips.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
