The most successful sixteen players sat at the final poker tables in the afternoon and it did not take long for a loud “seat open” to be heard in the poker room. The first eliminated were Martin "Peco" Pecník and Martin Lisý. We also saw a double seat open presented by Petr Hegedúš and the chip leader from the introduction, Martin "Student" Ilavský, who ran straight with his horses into Igor Šipeki's aces. Hegides was behind with a combination of Kx 9x and after the blank board we lost the chip leader and short stack.

Other victims of relentless poker were Dávid Pál, René Vais and the mystery of who will get to the final table was solved by Laco Červený, who had to settle for tenth place for 816€. The final table included these nine players:

• Seat 1: Jakub Machalík - 1,025,000
• Seat 2: Gajda Robert - 1,295,000
• Seat 3: Šipeki Igor - 2,735,000
• Seat 4: Kubačka Juraj - 1,045,000
• Seat 5: Nachtman Lukáš - 975,000
• Seat 6: Lubo Bubo - 2,885,000
• Seat 7: Málek Miro - 845,000
• Seat 8: Vacula Adrián - 1,325,000
• Seat 9: Minarík Vlado - 2,675,000

Balanced stacks brought quality poker, which was marked by big games by the involved players and there was a lot to see. The ninth place was taken by Lukáš Nachtman, when his Ax Qx was not enough for snowmen to melt in this cracking winter. Behind him, Jakub Machalík was eliminated for 1,050€ and the seventh place, together with 1,236€, went to Juraj Kubačka.

Two long hours of play followed, when the chips traveled from side to side and Vlado Minárik gradually increased his stack. All of sudden we saw "game over" three times in 15 minutes; Miro Málek bumped into the Minarík's horses with Qx Jx, followed by Adrián Vacula for  1,889€ and the last representative of the Czech Republic, Róbert Gajda, who won for fourth place 2,472€.

After this elimination, the Mini Masters tournament clock was "miraculously" stopped by the floor manager, and the three remaining gentlemen Minarík, Šipeki and Bubo started discussing. Their discussion resulted in a handshake and an agreement was reached; gentlemen agreed to share a certain win ratio and play overtime for a beautiful trophy and 2,217€.

• Vlado Minarík – 8,307€
• Bubo – 6,275€
• Igor Šipeki – 5,372€

Such a deal guaranteed a dynamic game until the very end. The third place was taken by the well-known home player Bubo, who ended unhappily on Vlada Minárik's shovel with a better combination. Bubo held queens and Vlado tens. The ten on the flop confirmed the elimination of Buba and sent him home on third place with 6,275€.

Heads Up lasted less than an hour when we had the opportunity to see the final hand of the Mini Masters - preflop all-in after the opening of Igor Šipeki was called by Vlado Minarík with Ax Jx. Igor turned Kx 9x and after the board of Tx Tx Qx Jx Qx it was clear that the second place would be taken by Vlado Minarík, who still received the biggest reward- 8,307€.
