The prestigious Super High Roller Bowl VIII kicks off at Aria Resort & Casino on Thursday and Nick Petrangelo is the leader of a field of 12 players that will return to the PokerGO Studio on Friday for Day 2.
The outsized buy-in attracted a field of 20 players, with $2,760,000 set aside for first place from a prize pool of $6,000,000. The top-four finishers will pay out and each of them are guaranteed to double their bet with a min-cash of $600,000. The runner up will make out with $1,680,000 and third place receives $960,000.
