Talbot Among Final Four Chasing �2,200 FPS High Roller Title
Two days of action at the 2024 PokerStars European Poker Tour Paris were not enough to complete the �2,200 France Poker Series High Roller event, so the remaining four players will return to crown a champion today.
When the clock hit 4 a.m. local time last night at Le Palais des Congres, Henrik Juncker bagged up 29,400,000 chips. His 49 big blinds are more than the other three players combined entering the added Day 3.
Among that group is PokerStars Ambassador Parker Talbot, who will sit down with 10,200,000 as play begins at 3 p.m. local time.
Joining the Canadian at the final table are Omar Del Pino (11,400,000) and short stack Guillermo Gordo (2,800,000), returning with just five big blinds.
