The €175 NLH €20,000 guarantee event has proved to be unsurprisingly popular here at King’s Resort in Rozvadov. So far, 185 total entrants have been made, and registration remains open until 11.55 p.m. local time.
Mixed Games Main Event TORSES runner-up Ameer Sabri has decided to spend his Friday night in Rozvadov in the event, having fired the €150 Baby TORSES earlier.
Only 8 will be paid in the Baby TORSES of the remaining 28 players. In maybe the toughest field to be found in a buy-in under €200, the field is filled to the brim with seasoned Mixed Game players: Barrie Dear, Risto Ponnio, Siarhei Narozhny, Fabian Bartuschk and Matteo Crapanzano are just a handful of names from this experienced field.
After a 10-hour session at King’s Resort Rozvadov, Romania’s Paul Craciunas has emerged as the €350 Open Face Chinese, besting Koen Roos in a short heads-up duel.
Craciunas made fives full of jacks on the bottom board, a pair of deuces in the middle, and ace high up top. Below are the payouts.
Three tables of 8 now remain, hunting for the remaining bounties in the Bounty Hunter Days Mystery Bounty. Here are the players that have fallen short so far, and their payout, exclusive of any bounty pulls.
Koen Roos is at a substantial disadvantage against his opponent Paul Craciunas, who has at least a 9:1 advantage over his Dutch opponent. Below are the payouts so far for the departed.
Play in the Open Face Chinese is now four-handed. Norbert Nawrot, Tomasz Walkowiak and Paul Craciunas had their hands ready and was waiting for Koen Roos to return from the outer table with his made hand, having qualified for fantasyland the previous hand.
He came back with a strong holding of an ace high flush on the bottom board, a queen high straight on the middle board and kings up top. He scooped versus Nawrot, who had jacks on the bottom, threes in the middle, and ace high up top to win a sizeable pot.
Thomas Eckerstorfer’s run good continues as he has pulled the biggest available bounty here at King’s Resort in Rozvadov. There is one €5,100 bounty left to pull, which is now the largest available bounty.
After being coerced into pressing the big red Mystery Button by our very own LemonPoker, Sebastian Rebhan caved in to the pressure applied by our social media content supremo. Ultimately, the Lemon squeeze paid off for Rebhan, as he binked one of two of the second biggest bounty prizes. Below is the table of the remaining bounties.
Here are the vanilla payouts for the €230 Bounty Hunter Days Mystery Bounty. A €13,600 top prize is up for grabs, a very generous payout from just a €230 buy-in.

Here are the top 10 chip counts ahead of Day 2 of the Bounty Hunter Days Mystery Bounty. Leading the field of 54 is Romanian Paul-Adrian Covaciu, who has a commanding stack of 1,531,000. Covaciu is a Rozvadov regular with $1,552,433 according to our friends at thehendonmob.com.
His nearest competitor is Dutchman Dwayne Sluis, who has accumulated $508,595 in live tournament earnings. Sluis cashed three times at The Festival Bratislava in 2025 in the €1,100 PLO High Roller, the €250 PLO4/5/6 and the €550 Main Event.
In third is Thomas Eckerstorfer, who bagged the biggest from the first flight. He also came into the final day of the TORSES Main Event as the chipleader, so it is safe to say Eckerstorfer has been running pretty good so far in Rozvadov.
The €150 Baby TORSES Supreme is underway with a field of 30 Mixed Games enthusiasts taking to the tables in this event. If you are new to Mixed Games and want to get involved, this is the perfect tournament to dip your toes into the Mixed Games action.

So far, Roei Yamin, Ilias Alkechen, Johan Huisman, and Crazy Pineapple champion Sami Korpela have progressed to the final of Franke’s flip-flops. Up for grabs is a package to the next Festival Series stop in Malta and a framed pair of flip flops (luckily unworn by Franke this trip).

Flips tonight will run from 8 p.m. local time at the tables near the tournament registration desk and buffet area.
