During the last three days, Banco Casino Bratislava has hosted the Vienna Poker Weekend, which will surely be remembered by three new poker champions Juhás, Janicijevic, and in yesterday’s 30,000€ GTD tournament, the local player Milan Dunko won. The Banco Casino Masters will start with satellites from tomorrow and the big fight for 100,000€ will start from Wednesday!

 

During the weekend, Banco Casino Bratislava hosted a tournament series called "Vienna Poker Weekend". The first tournament in the series took place on Thursday and carried the adjective "progressive knockout" with a 5,000€ guarantee. It did not withstand the pressure of the poker community and a total of 70 entries were collected. The trophy fell into the hands of Attila Juhas, who received a great financial reward and his first valuable victory at Banco Casino.

Friday night had a Monsterstack on the program, which guaranteed 10,000 Euros, but even before the tournament, 50 registered players signaled that the guaranteed prize pool would be just a formality. Already after the first break, the players nodded the guarantee, and the prize pool grew comfortably. More prize pool, more attention, and more atmosphere - this ratio has always been valid in the poker world, and last night only confirmed it.The number of entries stabilized at 167, which meant  14,035€ collected (including 151 addons). The winner was awarded with a prize of almost 3,000€, including a ticket to the Banco Casino Masters 100,000€ GTD, which will start next week.

The remaining four players agreed on a deal in equal parts for 1,688€, and after the final finish, Marjan Janicijevic from Austria became the official winner!
