Mikita Badziakouski leads the WPT World Online Championships High Roller Championship with just six players sitting between him and a $1 million top prize as well as the title.

With 28 players returning to the action on Day 2, the $25,500-entry High Roller Championship, the day kicked off with a Russian losing all his chips first, Mikhail Vilkov being the first player to bust. He was swiftly joined by plenty of others, however, as Stephen Chidwick, Wiktor Malinowski and Andras Nemeth all found themselves on the rail.

Ludovic Geilich has had some great results recently but his tournament ended in 19th place, the Scotsman busting for a $68,000 payday. Two more big names at opposite ends of their poker careers would join him soon afterwards, with Late Night Poker legend Simon Trumper and Ole Schemion both leaving the party on partypoker.

It had been Pascal Hartmann who started the day as chip leader, but his race was run when he busted in 14th place and he wasn’t the only big name to get close to the final table without reaching it. Australian player Kahle Burns busted in 11th place for $102,500, and he was followed by Jake Schindler, Timothy Adams, and Brock Wilson, all of whom missed out of the final day.
