Michael Addamo hopes to keep his hot streak alive with a strong finish in the $100,000 High Roller while Ben Yu hopes to snag his 4th bracelet in the $5,000 No Limit Hold'em.
In today's World Series of Poker report, we take a look at these remaining events of the 2021 WSOP.
Michael Addamo leads $100,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold'em
Michael Addamo is in the driver's seat in yet another high roller. This time, he holds an overwhelming chip lead in the $100,000 High Roller No Limit Hold'em where just five players remain. A total of 64 players entered the event with that number whittled down to a final table on Monday evening.
The remaining survivors are guaranteed at least $434,523 with first place set to receive $1,958,569. Sorel Mizzi, Sam Grafton, Mikita Badziakouski, William Klein and Fedor Holz were the last to bust before action was halted for the day but still took down respectable prizes.

Although Addamo hasn't played a ton of events during the Las Vegas leg of the WSOP, he has made it count when he participates. In mid-October, Addamo won the $50k No Limit High Roller (Event #8) for his third WSOP bracelet. He has also been on an absolute tear in the weeks preceding the start of the WSOP.
Addamo won the final two events of the Poker Masters in mid-September, which secured the Purple Jacket and Poker Masters title. He then followed that up with a 2nd place finish during a $50k Super High Roller Bowl event and then a title at the Super High Roller Bowl Main Event, which came with a $3.4 million prize. In addition to the WSOP bracelet, he also won a $15k event and came in third during the Aria High Roller Series in October to add to his lifetime tournament winnings mark, which sits at $15,765,525 as of Tuesday morning.
The third and final day of the $100,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold'em gets underway at 4 PM PT.

Sights and sounds from WSOP
Holy shit! I can't believe this really happened! I fkn won @wsop POY….what in the actual fuck! https://t.co/ejK1gRvgPF
Was disposed of in last wsop event tho statement to tablemates: “That’s it. I’m never playing another tournament at Rio again” was met with resounding success.
This is the great divide between players that are purely playing for profits vs those that value non-monetary prizes on top of that as well.
WSOP POY should have a marquee sponsor but the validity of this honor doesn't stand or fall with the association of monetary gains. https://t.co/3XwRTzrLnX
I started typing “no clue rarely look much @ my live results until end of year” but now u got me curious ????. Looks like 100k buy ins & 45k in cashes
For 1st time ever I decided not2play full schedule this WSOP to prioritize family, business, & health. Played 1/3 my normal volume https://t.co/tJDkGOLXiS
