Heads-Up Event Begins

€250 Heads-Up Day 1
Level 1: 100/100
Entries: 28/28

The heads-up event is one of the more fun events on the schedule as it isn't often these types of events run at festivals. Players start with 10,000 in chips with blinds increasing every 20 minutes. There is no late registration permitted in this event for obvious reasons.

"I just arrived last night and won't hop into the Main Event today," said Dainius Antanaitis this morning. "I am looking forward to playing the heads-up event as I haven't played this format in years."

Antanaitis may not have played a heads-up event in a while but has had some good experience playing heads-up recently as he has won multiple events in the last few months.

Meanwhile, Antanaitis is obviously not the only player in the field. Here is a look at the first-round match-ups:

  • Theo Baldanza vs. Peder Behr
  • Mikael Viggander vs. Giulio Sampinato
  • Milad Rad vs. Marthijn Lakerveld
  • Mark Adams vs. Sven Lysebo
  • Raoul van Wersch vs. Rami Amuri
  • Mircea-Catalin Foraru vs. Peter Nordin
  • Aharon Arbeli vs. Daniel Smith
  • Koen Meutstege vs. Linus Lauermann
  • Mantas Petrauskas vs. Jeremy Grodin
  • Cory Demond vs. Beka Ksovreli
  • Hugo Loustau vs. Dainius Antanaitis
  • Erik Lindqwist vs. Michael Hamann

Fabian Jarmer, Clausin Sanz, Christopher Cunliffe, and Noelia Ivars all already gave a bad beat to the rest of the field as they all randomly "earned" a first-round bye and were asked to come back at 4 p.m. for Round 2.
