The organisers of the 2018 Super High Roller Bowl have announced March 1 as the date of registration, and have confirmed they will select the final player list via lottery if interest exceeds 48-players.

The reasons Homo Sapiens have managed to put a leash on the tiger, ride elephants and adorn our walls with the heads of bears are numerous. One of them is our ability to make a mistake, learn from it, adjust, and try again.

Has the Super High Roller Bowl lost sight of that fact?

On Thursday, March 1 registration opens for the 2018 iteration of one of the eagerly anticipated tournaments of the year. The best poker players on the planet will form a line at the cash cages of the ARIA, pocket watch in hand – tick, tock – waiting to drop a lit match on the trail of gunpowder leading to a place in history.
