The ball is in Bruno Volkman‘s short when play resumes because the Brazilian is the chip leader with a stack of 2,894,414 chips (96.5 big blinds). Volkmann has been on fire at GGPoker lately and even managed to win the Sunday $25,500 Super HR compact on June 19 for $325,000.
Simon Matson is the closest player to Volkmann in chips thanks to a stack of 2,156,774 (71.9 big blinds). Mattsson already has a Super MILLION$ win this season, which is one of the reasons why he is fourth on the Season 2 earning list with $2,149,573 in earnings from this event alone.
The man at the top of these money lists is none other than Arthur Martirosian, who won the Super MILLION$ four times in Season 2 and five times overall. The Russian returns to action in third place with 1,493,390 chips (49.8 big blinds) and a realistic chance of winning his sixth Super MILLION$ title, which will be a new record. Martirosian is in fine form, having won Sunday’s $1,050 High Rollers Main Event a few days ago for $91,419.
