Luke Martin Won the MPN Poker Tour Tallinn 2019 Main Event and €49,000. Professional poker player Luke Martin, 30, has bested a total field of 562 to take home the 2019 MPNPT Tallinn Main Event trophy and €49,000 first prize, after a heads up deal with 32Red qualifier Paul Johnson. Martin, originally from Bracknell but residing in Finland, saw off final table opposition including three previous MPNPT Main Event finalists, experienced amateurs and semi-professionals but his wealth of experience playing online saw him lose the chip lead on the final only once.

Mpn Poker Tour Tallinn 2019, comme poker, broadway roulette harry potter, criar conta poker live brasil. January 7, 2018. Prize pool: 40%. 2019 promises to be another great year for the MPN Poker Tour, with the opening festival being held in Tallinn (24-27 January). The Estonian capital is justifiably considered one of the world’s leading poker venues, so this is the perfect curtain-raiser to the new year.

The Main Event, which ran from the 24th-27th January, awarded a total prizepool of €272,570, with 71 players paid.

Two tables of hopeful players returned for the Final Day at the Hilton Tallinn Park. While temperatures outside sank to -12, the battle for the title heated up as the largest portions of the €272,570 prizepool were awarded. Although they were already guaranteed at least €2,150, only half the surviving players could fit around the live streamed final table. Players such as Betsson qualifiers Declan Rice and Johan Goslings along with Jack Hardcastle bust before the final table, the latter jumping on the live commentary for a stint analyzing his former competitors. It was Paf qualifier Rikard Andersson who finished in 10th place, sending the rest of them to the final.

The final table’s play began with a bust-out – within minutes the shortest-stacked of the nine finalists, Dutchman Maarten Wichgers, hit the rail collecting €4,220. This elimination boosted Luke Martin’s stack over 4.3 million – a million clear of his nearest rival Jussi Mattila. Eighth place (€6,000) went to Norwegian schoolteacher Jørn Inge Hvål, and seventh to Arunas Garunkstis (€8,500).

After a long period six-handed, during which local player Tiit Piller and Paul Johnson took over most of the action, Piller found himself on the rail in 6th for €11,000, followed by MPNPT Manchester finalist Cody Wagner (€14,500). Another player making his second MPNPT final table, Finnish constructor Jussi Mattila, had played with calm and focus, but couldn’t find a chop when he had his final chips in the middle with A-7 against the A-8 of caller Johnson – himself a finalist at MPNPT Morocco. He finished 4th for €21,500.

Serial online qualifier Peter Pihlstrōm finished in 3rd place, winning €29,000; he already has a seat locked up for MPNPT Prague in May. This left Johnson and Martin heads up for the title, and they evened out the prize money (at least 10% must be played for along with the trophy). Although Johnson started out heads up with the chip lead, Martin pulled back and regained it, finally out-flopping his opponent and betting all three streets, amassing the rest of the tournament’s chips. Johnson, a financial advisor from Edinburgh, put in a good showing for his virtual rail on the Krackedkings forum, with whom he regularly travels to live events.

Martin had only to collect his hefty MPNPT Trophy and €49,000, which will be returning with him to Finland. Although he mainly plays cash games online, his foray into the arena of the MPNPT has been a profitable one, which he said he had enjoyed throughout.
