In the latest ranking of Player of the Year GPI-2017, the first place was taken by Bryn Kenney, who broke the leadership of Mustafa Kanita. 

Mustapha Kanit held the first position for a week, but because the difference in points with Kenny was less than one ball, the Americans regained the lead by getting balls for the sixth place in the High Roller tournament with a buy-in of USD 25 000 per ARIA. 

Byron Kaverman took third place at the expense of fifth place in the tournament, which made buy-USD 50 000 in the same Casino ARIA. Player of the Year GPI-2017:
