The cards are now in the air on the final table of the $100,000 High Roller with six players remaining.

The biggest of Keith Tilston's nine WSOP cashes came less than a week ago in Event #90: $50,000 Final Fifty when he cashed in sixth place for $275,874.

The high stakes regular has over $3.6m in lifetime earnings with ten six-figure cashes stretching back to 2006 but will be looking for his first bracelet when play resumes.

He shot to the top of the chip counts in the very last hand of Day 2 when he cracked the pocket aces of Sergi Reixach with kings, when another king came on both the turn and the river. Those quads saw him put almost 60 big blinds in the bag for Day 3.

Despite coming into the final table as the short stack, former all-time money list leader Daniel Negreanu will enter the arena full of confidence. By cashing this event, he brings his tally of cashes to 15. This marks his best return since 2017 when he recorded 11.

The two-time WSOP Player of the Year (2004 & 2013) will be gunning for bracelet number six when play resumes.

The 28-year-old German Dominik Nitsche has over $18 million in lifetime earnings, over $7.5 million of which have arrived courtesy of the World Series of Poker, just one reason why he was hailed as one of the Top 50 players in WSOP history earlier in the Series.

The four-time bracelet winner hasn't won a Vegas bracelet since 2014, however, which was when he took down a $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em Event and the National Championship in the same year. Since then he has won the €111,111 High Roller for One Drop in Rozvadov for €3,487,463 and will be looking for another seven-figure score to cap off his summer.
