A Brief History of Super High Roller Bowl
The first time the poker community had the pleasure to play SHRB was in 2015.
It was a 3-day event with $500,000 buy-in that attracted 43 entrants and collected a $21,500,000 prize pool. Prizes above $860,000 were paid out to only seven players. The first ever winner of SHRB was the U.S. professional poker player Brian Rast who took a $7,525,000 prize.
From that time SHRB was held annually, even during the COVID pandemic, as one very expensive event for the most skillful and wealthy players in the community.
As of August 2024, Justin Bonomo has been the only player who won SHRB three times — two live successively in 2018 and third online in 2020. You can check the full SHRB timeline in the table below.
