1.198 Entries und ein Preisgeldfonds von über €227.000 – das sind die beeindruckenden Zahlen, die dem Main Event der Italian Masters of Poker gleich zu mehreren Rekorden verhalfen.
194 Teilnehmer hatten sich für den Finaltag qualifiziert, womit feststand, dass noch 67 Spieler leer ausgehen würden.
Karel Radomski ging als Chipleader ins Finale, doch mit einer Spitzenplatzierung wurde es nichts – er musste sich mit Platz 43 und €774 Preisgeld begnügen.
Viel besser lief es für sieben andere Spieler, die sich nach dem Ausscheiden von Stanislas Geberovitch auf Platz 8 auf einen Deal einigten.
Für jeden der Sieben bedeutete dies ein fünfstelliges Preisgeld, wobei sich der Sieger „SantaClaus“ dann allerdings auch mit €23.116 statt den ursprünglich vorgesehenen €42.520 begnügen musste.
