*reflects a three-handed deal
The final day began with Team partypoker’s Ludovic Geilich leading 24 hopefuls back into battle. A strong of eliminations, including those of Scott Margereson, Alexandru Papazian, Andras Nemeth, and Martin Zamani, reduced the player count.
Geilich was still going strong at this stage but then his world fell apart. After losing a sizeable pot when William Blais check-raised all-in on the flop in a three-bet pot and he had to fold, Gelich got his stack in with aces against Alex Foxen’s king-jack. Foxen won the hand thanks to the board running out all hearts and he held the jack of hearts. This left Geilich with four big blinds and he busted soon after in 14th place for $65,000.
The likes of former WSOP Main Event champion Ryan Riess, the aforementioned Foxen, Jonathan Kozel, and Oskar Prehm crashed out to set the final table.
Philipp Gruissem was the first casualty of the final table, committing his stack with pocket aces and losing to Hunichen’s sixes thanks to a six on the turn. Gregory Baird then fell at the hands of Hunichen who again hit a set of sixes.
Canada’s Peter Jetten’s shove with king-ten lost to Scott Wellenbach’s pocket queens before Oleg Mandzjuk made a move with suited five-four and lost to the suited ace-eight of Wellenbach with both players improving to a flush.
Blais the busted in fifth-place for $500,000. Blais’ ace-eight was ahead of Hunichen’s queen-ten until a queen landed on the river. This left three players in the Main Event and the trio struck a deal while on an official break. The deal left $100,000 and the trophy for the eventual champion.
Hunichen fell in third when he shoved with ace-three and Van Blarcum called with ace-king. Both players flopped an ace and the board counterfeited Hunichen’s hand and he crashed out in third for $1,097,195.
The chip counts were almost level going into heads-up but Mateos soon started turning the screw. By the time the final hand took place, Van Blarcum held 134,000,000 chips to Mateos’ colossal stack of 814,000,000. Those 134,000,000 chips went into the middle with ten-deuce and Mateos called with jack-nine. A nine on the flop was enough to seal the deal for Mateos who now has $19,423,996 in live tournament winnings thanks in part to the $1,162,805 he locked up in this tournament and the $520,464 he collected for winning the $25,500 MILLIONS Super High Roller a couple of days ago.
Two other tournaments crowned their champions as the 2019 Caribbean Poker Party began drawing to a close.
The $10,300 MILLIONS High Roller Finale, a tournament that saw 205 players buy in, was won by Norbert Szecsi who collected $400,000. Szecsi defeated Ralph Wong heads-up to secure the title, resigning the runner-up to a $260,000 consolation prize.
Others who reached the final table were Matthias Eibinger, Garik Tamasian, Marques De Miranda, Julien Martini, Stephen Chidwick, Jamie Sequeira, and 2019 Poker Masters champion Sam Soverel.

---|---|---|---|
1 | Norbert Szecsi | Hungary | $400,000 |
2 | Ralph Wong | United States | $260,000 |
3 | Matthias Eibinger | Austria | $178,500 |
4 | Garik Tamasian | Russia | $135,000 |
5 | Marques De Miranda | Portugal | $110,000 |

8 | Jaime Sequeira | Canada | $160,000 |
9 | Sam Soverel | United States | $50,000 |
Team partypoker pros made up three of the seven in-the-money finishers in the MILLIONS Super High Roller Finale but it was Wai Leong Chan who was the last player standing.
Kristen Bicknell was awarded $75,000 for her seventh-place finish and was joined on the rail by Netherlands’ Rob Hollink whose sixth-place finish yielded $95,000.
Jason Koon crashed out in fifth for $120,000 before Ali Imsirovic ran out of steam in fourth-place and walked away with $150,000. Sean Winter’s third-place finish saw him pad his bankroll with $191,000.
Winter’s exit set up a heads-up battle between Chan and Isaac Haxton and it was the former who took down the tournament. Haxton consoled himself with the $250,000 runner-up prize while Chan banked a cool $380,000.

The Autumn season is about to come into full force within the next couple of weeks, and it is with the arrival of this season that various poker tournaments also kick off. And while some players may find this myriad of events a bit confusing, we’ve brought a collection of the most anticipated ones to you here. This way, you can see what each one is offering and when they’re expected to take place, so you can easily find one that works best for you. So, let’s find out which the most anticipated poker tournaments in Autumn 2019 are.
Why would you not have interest in accessing a poker tournament that boasts a $10 million guarantee? That’s precisely what the PartyPoker MILLIONS World event provides, and this one takes place between the 9th and 17th of November. Granted, that may be running quite close to the winter season, but it still counts as Autumn.
The tournament will take place at the Baha Mar, Nassau, the Bahamas, which is the largest casino in the Caribbean. Highlights taking place within the tournament include the Caribbean Poker Party Main Event Day 1A on Saturday, November 10, the MILLIONS Main Event 1 in 5 Satellite: 30 x Day 1B Seats GTD later on the same day, the $50K Super High Roller on Monday November 12 and H.O.R.S.E event on Friday, November 16.

There’s an online qualifier package for this one, which is worth €500, and these qualifiers are open to all Unibet customers. Buy-ins for the event stand at £200+£20 and all players have the option of playing both Day 1A and Day 1B, and then taking their largest stack through to the Final Day. The winner of the Main Event will also be on the receiving end of a custom trophy as well as a €2,000 Unibet Open package.
Between the dates of Friday 25th October and Thursday 7th November, the seventh outing of the CPPT Live! Tournament will occur in Hanover, Maryland, USA. The Live! Casino & Hotel is ideally located between Baltimore and Washington D.C., and it contains a 52-table poker room for the tournament to take place in.

You’re able to play online Day 1s via the PartyPoker platform from October 20th through to the 24th, though the types of events and scheduling for such has not yet been released.
The Battle of Malta tournament is already set to expand beyond and above what it has achieved before. Last year, the tournament saw 13,000 entries altogether, making it the biggest poker tournament that Malta has ever experienced. The six-day festival saw almost €2.56 million awarded to players in prize money across 15 separate events and it was this festival that went on to win Event of the Year at the 2015 European Poker Awards. It’s now making its way into the eighth year of operation.
The Main Event for the 2019 tournament, which is set to take place between Tuesday 15th and Tuesday 22nd October, features a buy-in of €555 and players have the ability to qualify through various online sites, alongside competing in several live satellites throughout Europe. Popular events, such as the Ladies Event and the Crazy 888s will be available on the tournament’s schedule again. Yet, the tournament also introduces a €5,300 buy-in Super High Roller event to its schedule for 2019.
The Grosvenor UK Poker Tour goes through various casinos in the country, including Luton and Blackpool, before it arrives for the Grand Final at London’s Grosvenor Victoria Casino. This will be taking place between Monday 18th November and Sunday 1st December. Starting at 7:00pm on the 18th, there’s a £50,000 guarantee on offer with buy-ins starting from £220+£30.
