The PokerStars European Poker Tour Prague at the Hitlon Prague continued today with the final high-stakes event on the roster; the €10,200 No Limit Hold'em.

Teun Mulder reigned supreme over the total field size of nine players, laying claim to the lion’s share of the €87,210 prize pool. Mulder took €56,710 in his final attempt to book a win here in Prague.

After dispatching Enrico Camosci in heads-up play, Mulder confirmed that this result was his first cash of this EPT stop as he claimed the final five-figure buy-in PokerStars Silver Spadie of the series

Action of the Day

What appeared to be a quiet start, with play commencing three-handed, soon unfolded with electric action. With the addition of Enrico Camosci only a matter of minutes into play, this quartet of skilled high rollers got ready to battle over the felt late into the night.

Momentum started in Steve O'Dwyer’s favor; a timely hero-call with just king-high caught Vladas Tamasauskas' bluff red-handed, sending O’Dwyer to an early lead.

However, this was a short-lived fate for the former EPT champion; only a matter of hands later, it was Camosci’s turn to hero-call O’Dwyer’s bold bluff to leave him the shortest player in the room.

Before the conclusion of Level 1, Mihails Nikitins took the lead in a classic tournament flip against O’Dwyer to send him to the rail, but time is money, and knowing this, O’Dwyer reentered the tournament from his phone before the next hand had even been dealt.

Another big bluff from O’Dwyer saw his second stack soon land in the hands of Tamasauskas, putting O’Dwyer on his third bullet before the first break.

Both Teun Mulder and Thomas Santerne caught news of the action and quickly took to the felt. Santerne was hunting for his fourth title at EPT Prague, but it didn’t last long when his flopped straight flush draw collided with the premium pocket pair of Camosci, sending his first entry up in flames. However, the French phenom’s trophy hunt continued as he swiftly reentered.

Two-Day Tournament Becomes One

The rapid departures of Tamasauskas and Nikitins meant only four players remained at the table, prompting the floor to intervene. With two spots set to be paid, the tournament director elected to shut registration and the race toward the money began.

The third time was not the charm for O’Dwyer as his investment of €30,600 saw no return; his departure left the remaining trio on the stone money bubble.

“I run so bad!” were the words of three-time EPT Prague champion Santerne as he lost his final flip of the series on the bubble. Although Santerne was in for two bullets today, his combined winnings of €691,975 over the last fortnight, alongside three PokerStars trophies, ensured he left the table in incredibly high spirits regardless.

The Heads-Up Battle

Camosci started this heads-up match with a large chip advantage, but Mulder got straight to work. They played almost as long as the tournament that lead up to it, but pot after pot consistently found their way into Mulder's stack.

Given the depth of stacks, both players knew a double-up for Camosci would ensure a battle late into the early morning. So when the match-up eventually came to a head, even Camosci started to root for Mulder to win.

"Please be over, I want to be away from this," joked Camosci as his pocket queens collided with the ace-ten of Mulder. Camosci’s wish was granted as the board ran out to give Mulder a straight, alongside the trophy, title and €56,710.

"That was fun," said Mulder. "We should do this again sometime." he joked.
