Jokers in the deck of the PCA High Roller Competition

In the last high roller competition for 50 thousand dollars 26 people participated, but only five of them were eventually able to get prizes. These are professional poker players such as Justin Bonomo, Stephen Chidwick, Igor Kurganov, Alex Foxen and Timothy Adams.

Only Stephen and Timothy reached the final, and they quickly agreed on a deal and in the end even decided to give a little spice to their fight. Chidwick and Adams decided at the same time that they want the jokers in the deck.

In this regard, flora was called, which brought a deck with added jokers. For this, the game was suspended while Flora discussed this opportunity with the tournament director. While discussions were ongoing, poker players were able to split the amounts and equalize the stacks, after which Chidwick had 424 thousand dollars, and Adams had 351 thousand dollars. As a reward for the winner was assigned an amount of 21 and a half thousand dollars, as well as the main trophy for the finalist.

In the final test, the deck was thus from 54 cards.

Adams quickly doubled, holding an ace and five against his ace and seven. He was able to build a flash.

Only after 40 minutes of the competition did the first joker appear, because of which Timothy was able to collect the flash again and win the next game.

After two hands, Stephen was already able to double, playing with two kings against ace Timothy. In the final hand, Chidwick decided to push with aces and jacks, but Adams supported his bet, since he had a lady and just an added joker on his hands. On this table at that moment were seven, queen, four, ace and six.

Thus, the added joker was able to help Timothy eventually win and become a real champion in the high roller tournament.
