Another Poker Fever Series event arrived to its conclusion on Monday. We spent amazing six days in the magnificent Go4Games Hodolany in Olomouc and we had a blast!
Once again we had to deal with unatural circumstances. The Covid-19 pandemic was a major factor determining the number of guests at our festival. Because of that we were unable to reach the guarantees in Poker Fever One Day Special, Super High Roller (barely) and in the Main Event. It is comforting that all other tournaments have defended their prize pools. We would like to thank you for that.
Let’s meet the winners of the highlited events (chronological order).

While in heads-up the deal was struck between Marek Ohnisko and Matěj Vantuch (featured image). Both players decided to leave themselves CZK 550.000 and fight for the CZK 21.200 and the trophy.
