ARIA High Rollers Pay Out More than $700K

Poker action picked up in Las Vegas over the weekend with a trio of ARIA $10,000 High Roller tournaments.

The rake-free — for those registering on time — tournaments took place on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of last week and awarded $770,000 in prizes. Three different winners emerged in Dan Smith, Cary Katz and Christopher Brewer as the prize money was distributed across a pretty wide selection of players.

The first event of the series turned out to be the biggest of the bunch as 34 entries were logged on Thursday for a prize pool of $340,000.
