Poker players have invaded Go4Games Casino Hodolany this weekend, where the Poker Fever festival was held for the first time since the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic broke out. Please have a look at the summary of the most important events of the past days.
Poker Fever CUP (Special Edition)
We already knew on Thursday that the July Poker Fever CUP (CZK 1.500) will be a great success, when 185 registrations were collected on the first starting day. After that, it only got better. On Friday, the cash register confirmed the purchase of 206 tickets, on Saturday 291 and 258 were accumulated, and when the late registration on the turbo flight was completed, the tournament director confirmed a total of 1,132 entries.
On the final day, 154 players resumed the game and 116 places were paid. Łukasz “Krzaku” Krzyczkowski, the winner of the ME Poker Fever Series, this time became a bubble boy. The competition in the main tournament was dominated by players from Poland – among the last 14 players, 12 were Poles. The Czechs, however, held on tight and fought for the highest goals until the very end. Lukáš Mrózek was eliminated in sixth place, and Miroslav Svoboda siezed the “bronze medal”. Marcin “Dino” Micielski and Rafał Strzelecki met in heads-up and they immediately agreed on a deal, under which the first of them was the winner of the tournament.
Here are the payouts for the tournament’s top-9 (CZK):
1 Micielski Marcin 245.900
2 Strzelecki Rafał 214.200

The winner was the WSOP bracelet holder Lukáš Záškodný, who dealt with Marek Studený in the heads-up. The best Pole in the field finished the game in third place, and it was Tadeusz Raczyński who scored second major final table during this weekend.
