The Master of Classics Poker €4,300 Main Event Final Table

When it comes to this year’s MCOP €4,300 Main Event final table, amazing Kevin Paqué started second-placed in terms of chips value. However, very soon Kevin took the lead after he went head to head with another amazing player, Pascal Vos. From here, Kevin Paqué put great pressure on every opponent, but still, two hours have passed before the very first player was eliminated from the final table and this was Ole Schemion.

Just one hand later, the second player was eliminated from the final table Shyngis Satubayev and player by player, the final table came down to only two players Steve O’Dywer and Kevin Paqué. The final table’s heads-up game started and Steve O’Dwyer soon later found his chip stack getting very short. He doubled up several times to lose to great Kevin Paqué in the very end. The Main Event lasted for over two and a half hours of a rather exciting heads-up game between the two players.

In the end, Kevin Paqué won the event with a flush draw that perfectly hit on the river. As the event’s first-placed player, Kevin Paqué banked €260,878 while Steve O’Dwyer won €174,421.
