First Ever EPT Event in Hungary
Posted on | November 23, 2008 |
The European Poker Tour (EPT) came to Hungary for the first time when the EPT Hungarian Open event was held in the Las Vegas casino at The Sofitel Hotel in Budapest.
Four events including the No Limit Hold’em Freezeout main event were played out in one of Europe’s most up and coming capital cities.
The main event had a field of 513 players. It was won by Englishman Will Fry, who remarkably was competing in his first major live poker tournament.
Fry is a 28 year-old pro from Nottingham and follows in the footsteps of fellow Nottingham poker professional Julian Thew who won the EPT Baden Classic in last year’s EPT season.
Fry defeated another player making his major live poker tournament debut, Ciprian Hrisco of Romania, in the heads-up final. Hrisco only began playing poker online some 18 months ago, so it was a great performance by the 21 year-old.
Hrisco took the runners-up cheque of 342,608 euros (£271,360). Whereas, Fry’s reward was 595,839 euros (£471,953) and a seat at the EPT end of season Grand Final in Monte Carlo, next spring.
The EPT stays in Eastern Europe for the next leg of the tour, with the EPT Warsaw event.
