The 2023 EUREKA Poker Tour champion Joerg Schneegass has spent the better part of the last few years commuting between his home in Munich, Germany, and the Kings Casino Rozvadov, participating in all events he could find the time to play in. Here are the complete final table payouts of the 2023 edition of EUREKA Poker Tour Rozvadov:ĩ.ĝavid Berdis (Slovakia) - €22,700 Hard Work and Patience Pay Off for Schneegass

Interestingly, the third-placed Paolo Calculli from Italy also won €160,935, as he was one of the biggest benefactors of the five-way ICM chop. Yet, another €20,000 was left in play for the champion, as the remaining players could already celebrate their success and pop open the champagne while playing down to the official winner.īy the time it was all said and done, it came down to two German players - Paul Knebel and Joerg Schneegass - with the latter walking away victorious and taking home €187,335, which would be the highest payout of the tournament. With the prize pool set at €1.72 million, the champion was going to take home €283,000 in cash, but a five-way ICM deal among the remaining players meant that everyone left in play would get at least €125,684 for their troubles, significantly diminishing the first place prize.

The final nine were all European players, with three Romanians, two Germans, and one player each from Italy, Belarus, Poland, and Slovakia representing their flags at the final table. While nearly 2000 players gave it a shot, only 21 would return for Day 3 action on Monday, and a final table was set after slightly more than five hours of play. The Kings Casino Rozvadov has been the center of all poker action in Europe for quite some time, so it comes as little surprise that the record-setting EUREKA event happened in this casino of all the places.
