Antonius Krijn wins the €600 Havana High Roller. The Dutchman settled a field of 232 entrants and captured the lion's share of a €116,278 prizepool.
Krijn won without a deal for €23,750. Short-stacked in the semi-finals, the Dutchman went all-in with Dame Valet suit to see Farukh Tach go all-in over the top... and then Pierre Neuville go all-in too. Facing Ace-King and two Jacks, he tripled up, hitting a King on the flop, a 9 on the turn and a ten on the river.
While this move weakened Farukh Tach and pushed Neuville towards the exit, Krijn followed up with an all-in 4-bet with Ace-King that allowed him to crack the opposing Kings and head into the final with a big stack. Ten minutes of madness that led to a clear-cut victory.
The final table lasted just under two hours, and the head's up against a French player was also rapid.
Manu Poznanski earned himself a 5-figure podium finish, while Corentin Bordas and Fabio Percio rounded off their week in style after a little excitement in the Main Event. Daniel Dodet and Farukh Tach made a very brief appearance at the final table...
Morgan Poisson, Charly Mouline and Rene Franck signed up for one more deep-run, as did the evergreen Pierre Neuville. Ali Nafioui narrowly missed out on the semi-finals, while 31 players entered the money.
Around 100 players took part in Day 2, with Daamian Rzab Sekh the last player to be eliminated without compensation (32nd)...
