A number of the world's best poker players turned out for Super High Roller Bowl V, including the likes of Daniel Negreanu, Justin Bonomo and Phil Hellmuth. There are plenty of High Roller tournament regulars present at the event as well, as Stephen Chidwick, Fedor Holz and Igor Kurganov are all participating as well.

The top of the leaderboard, however, is currently being occupied by Rick Salomon, who managed to finish Day 1 with a stack of 806,000 chips. This puts Salomon ahead of the likes of Ali Imsirovic (661,000), Daniel Negreanu (623,000), Stephen Chidwick (553,000) and Nick Petrangelo (460,000).

Some of the names that didn't make it through to Day 2 included Steffen Sontheimer, Cary Katz and Christoph Vogelsang.
