Article cover

The Main Event of the Summer Polish Poker Cup has crowned its champion. The tournament saw a total of 3,365 entries and pushed the prize pool beyond €400,000. Yesterday marked the final day, where the last 9 players battled it out for the championship and the associated €65,430 prize. All the action was captured by our cameras, and you can watch the final table's footage below.

The final day kicked off as the clock struck two, with the nine remaining players diving into action after a group photo. Adam Ignasiak started as the chipleader but saw his dream of the title vanish as players like Stefan Gvozdenovic, Richard Molnar, Raul Alexandru Balogh, Dimirios Iatropoulos, and Przemyslaw Tolczyk were gradually eliminated. Grzegorz Iszczuk solidified his lead, knocking out Gorazd Jukovic in fourth place and Blanco Balani in third, who took home €26,340.

The heads-up commenced after about three hours of play, with Iszczuk holding a commanding 97 million stack against the former chipleader Ignasiak, who had 36 million. After twenty minutes, Ignasiak lost it all, going all-in with K8 against his opponent's A7. No help came for Ignasiak, and Grzegorz Iszczuk celebrated the title, trophy, and a reward of €65,430 with a stunning final day's performance.
