Der €5.300 Main Event der European Poker Tour (EPT) im InterContinental Malta ist entschieden.
Fünf Spieler bekamen am Sonntag die Chance auf den Titel und die Siegprämie von €760.000, die dem Gewinner winkte.
In Führung lag der Ukrainer Mykhailo Ostash, doch bis auf den Norweger Tom-Aksel Bedell hatten alle Konkurrenten noch ausreichend Chips, um sich reelle Siegchancen ausrechnen zu können.
Bedell war es dann auch, der wie erwartet als Erster an die Rail und sich mit €200.550 begnügen musste.
Wenig später platzte dann auch der Traum von Aliaksei Boika von der Wiederholung seines Triumphs von 2016.
Der Belarusse kam einem Back-to-back-Erfolg sehr nahe, am Ende reichte es aber „nur“ zu Rang 4.
Als dann auch noch der Spanier Adria Calonge ausschied, stand das Heads-Up fest. Dort trafen der EPT-Debütant Mykhailo Ostash und Tomasz Brzezinski aufeinander.
Der Pole konnte sich am Finaltag über gute Karten wahrlich nicht beklagen und bekam gleich mehrere Monster.
Als Folge ging es als klarer Chipleader ins Heads-Up, doch der Ukrainer kam immer wieder zurück. Nachdem sich die beiden auf einen Deal mit je €603.058 für jeden Spieler geeinigt hatten, ging es noch um €28.534 und den Pokal.
Den sicherte sich nach langem Kampf Tomasz Brzezinski, als Ostash in der letzten Hand sein elftes (!) All-In (dann doch) verlor.
