Professional poker player Mateusz Warowiec has won the €550 MPN Poker Tour Prague Main Event and 900,000 Kč (€36,000/$39,158) after outlasting Sunday’s returning twenty-three players to hoist his first MPNPT trophy.
With nine years of pro play under his belt, the Day 1a chip leader never dropped in chips once he’d secured a big stack, and calmly outmaneuvered his eight final table opponents until he added the coveted prize to his prior $110,000 in live winnings.
Mpn Poker Tour 2019 Dates
The 402-entry Main Event paid the top 47 finishers a share of its 4,808,925 Kč (€192,357) total prize pool, with a min-cash worth 28,750 Kč (€1,150). Having made the final day well into the money positions, everyone returned guaranteed a payout of at least €1,900.
While the live stream (on Twitch and Facebook) gave out the password for the special online €2,000 Livestream Freebuy (which awarded the winner an MPNPT London package worth €1,500) the feature table saw players’ fortunes rise and fall until Warowiec held every chip in the tournament. Once the final table was set, a seriousness lacking from the laughter-filled side events took over the final nine.
2019 €550 MPN Poker Tour Prague Main Event Final Table Recap
A big reversal of stack occurred early on as Grosvenor Poker qualifier Alex Clark doubled up Jari-Pekka Rattya, who promptly went on to bust Jason Poelman in ninth (100,000 Kč/€4,000). The experienced Martin Mulsow busted in eight in a classic ace-king versus pocket queens flip.
All was briefly calm before shock back-to-back eliminations suddenly brought the final table to its short-handed stage. British professional player Daniel Stacey suffered a bad beat to finish in seventh place, followed to the rail the very next hand by Vilem Vrana, whose suited ace-king failed to hit against the tens of Clark.
For a while, it looked as if Alex Clark had recovered from his shaky start, but he was to be eliminated in fifth by Lazar; ace-ten against ace-jack.
Four-handed play continued for several levels until finally, Jari-Pekka Rattya succumbed, moving in as a short-stack with king-eight offsuit, called by two out of three of his opponents. In the end, it was Warowiec who took his scalp, which meant that fellow Paf qualifier Marko Keskel won Paf’s “qualifiers’ last-longer” and a free MPNPT London package, as well as the €25,300 he picked up for his second place.
The elimination of Andrei Lazar in third set the heads up with Warowiec in a commanding chip position, which he increased until Marko Keskel took the plunge all-in preflop one time too many and found Warowiec trapping with pocket jacks which held up to secure the victory.

MPN Poker Tour returns to Tallinn with action-packed poker schedule. The MPN Poker Tour (MPNPT) returns to the Olympic Park Casino in the heart of the beautiful city of Tallinn, Estonia, this January for the first MPN poker event of 2019.
Running from 24-27 January, the popular stop will feature an action-packed poker schedule consisting of different formats, including the flagship €200,000 guaranteed €550 buy-in Main Event.
The MPNPT Tallinn 2019 event schedule will also include The Hendon Mob Championship (THMC), which has a buy in of €220 and starts on January 26. This will give MPNPT players the chance to win a unique custom flag on their Hendon Mob profile, which is currently held by only 55 of the 568,000 Hendon Mob players. This will be the second Hendon Mob Championship following its successful debut at the Malta Poker Festival in November, where 491 players from over 30 countries participated, generating a €105,000 prize pool.
For players looking for more affordable and lower cost ways to join in the action and visit the beautiful city of Tallinn, online satellites for the MPNPT Tallinn 2019 event are currently under way at all MPNPT partner online poker rooms.

Finnish player Keimo Suominen emerged victorious at the previous MPNPT Tallinn stop in 2017, taking down 534 players for a first place prize of €50,000 and the coveted MPNPT trophy. Who will follow in Suominen’s footsteps and become the next MPNPT Tallinn champion?
Alex Scott, Managing Director of Poker at Microgaming, comments: “Tallinn is always a popular stop on the MPN Poker Tour calendar and players can expect four days of action-packed poker and fun. The addition of The Hendon Mob Championship to the tournament schedule follows positive feedback received from players who played in the inaugural championship in Malta and provides our MPN Poker Tour regulars with a chance to win an exclusive flag at our Tallinn event.”

The best way to make this happen is by partnering with Europe’s best live event providers and combining our expertise to create an unparalleled player experience that will keep players coming back.”
