Dan Colman Headlines 2015 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open $5 Million Guaranteed

One of poker’s top five biggest money earners has made the final table of the 2015 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open $5 Million Guaranteed in Hollywood, Florida.

Daniel Colman will enter the final table with 3,655,000 in chips.  The 24-year-old made news last year after winning the Big One for One Drop and a cool $15 million.

Colman made even more headlines by fleeing the World Series of Poker host casino, the Rio, within five minutes.

His handlers claimed Colman “was not interested in promoting poker”.

The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino kicked off the Third Annual Seminole Hard Rock  Poker Open on July 30. The signature series features a single-entry $5 million guarantee championship and The Big 4, a first ever four final table finale, televised by Poker Night in America on CBS Sports Network in early 2016.

Here is a look at the chip counts heading into the final table:
