The Virtual Rail: High Roller Club News – Addamo Bags a Brace; Gostisa Leads

As the world widens their aperture in post lockdown world, online poker players stay firmly seated with butts in chairs courtesy of some of the best high stakes action the industry has ever seen. Given the recent rise in coronavirus cases in Las Vegas casinos since the decision to reopen the pits, I guess that’s a good thing.

While weekend warriors dodged COVID bullets in nightclubs, churches and casinos alike, Michael Addamo took the High Roller Club apart like a seasoned plumber with a wrench and a leaky faucet.

The awesome Australian, hailing from Old Blighty, binked victories in Sunday’s two highest buy-ins in the High Roller Club collecting more than $600,000 in loot, and moving up to #11 in the leaderboard proper.

The man standing ten rungs of the ladder higher than Addamo is Rok Gostisa. The Slovenian finished in the money (ITM) in two of Sunday’s events to surpass Luke Reeves at the top. The British star managed to eke into one final table, finishing fifth in the Warm-Up, slipping into second place.

Timothy Adams, Juan Pardo Dominguez, and Pascal Lefrancois all replicating Gostisa with two final appearances on Sunday. Adams sits fourth in the overall leaderboard with Lefrancois, seventh.
