Players from around the world have been involved in the action with one of the biggest casino sites, where a combined total of $22 million has been up for grabs throughout this unique week on the poker circuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest events of the week so far took place on Tuesday evening, as the $10,300 Super Millions was played. There was a total prize pot of a staggering $3 million up for grabs for the players involved. There were 291 players involved in the competition, which meant that there was a gruelling competition in store for each player. However, it was to be Kyle Menard that outlasted the field, as he picked up a win in his first ever Super Million$ appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"kyle-menard-successful-at-first-attempt\">Kyle Menard Successful At First Attempt<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Menard would have been a player that viewers of the evening would have been aware of, as the Canadian is already having an excellent week. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moneypokersites.com\/news\/canadian-player-wins-event-at-world-championship-of-online-poker\/\">Earlier in the week, he finished in third place<\/a> in the Battle of Malta $5,250 High Roller Championship, which saw him take home a stunning total of $235,088. He didn\u2019t have to wait much longer to claim a first win during this week long event, as it came in the Super Millions. Menard claimed returns of $628,892 for winning the event, which means that he has now earned over $1 million with GGPoker throughout his career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it was never going to be easy for the Canadian, as he faced a gruelling challenge on the final table in the forms of some of the most recognisable players in the world. <a href=\"https:\/\/pokerdb.thehendonmob.com\/player.php?a=r&amp;n=97716\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Stephen Chidwick <\/a>was one of the players involved, but he needed to settle for a place in ninth in the final standings. The British player still managed to take home $63,552 for his excellent performance. Meanwhile, the highest ranked Estonian player was PidrPan, who finished in eighth and took home a prize of $84,638.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"remainder-of-the-leaderboard\">Remainder Of The Leaderboard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The battle was ferocious on the final table, with the final table game lasting for just over two hours. However, it was a gripping affair that left viewers engaged from the dealing of the first card. Goldish55 was the next to fall, with the fourth Canadian on the leaderboard claiming returns of $112,719. Fab5 and Timothy Adams were the next two players on the leaderboard, as they finished in sixth and fifth respectively. Adams claimed $199,920 in returns for his fine performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The highest placed American in the competition was iStayOn5, who finished in fourth place and claimed a welcome return of $266,248. The second highest ranked Canadian in the huge event was Philippe D\u2019Auteuil, who finished in third place in the standings and took home $254,582. Meanwhile, the player to finish in second place to Menard was Finnish player Eelis Parssinen. However, he didn\u2019t leave empty handed as he picked up $472,222.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It has been an exciting week of poker action online, with the High Rollers Week on GGPoker gaining all the attention.
