The €125 Roulette Tournament has been won by Thomas Gugerbauer, who’s score of 138,200 was far ahead of second placed Rolf Arne Bechstroem’s 90,000 total. There were 91 entries, making it by far the busiest roulette tournament ever held at The Festival Series.
Gugerbauer’s win was the result of one extremely lucky spin where he covered the zero and all its splits with as many chips as possible. That spin alone earned him 122,000 points and was good enough for first place. many tried to knock him off the top spot, but all failed.
However, as per yesterday’s blackjack tournament, it was not until the very last few spins that the result became inevitable. Third placed Esko Virri had chances to win, having accumulated over 60,000 with five spins to go. However he played it cautiously to ensure third place rather than risking it all for glory. The Full Result to follow.
By winning the roulette, Gugerbauer became the first double winner of The Festival in Rozvadov, going back-to-back after taking down Tuesday’s PLO Knockout. He is having a really good festival, as he also took second place in the €250 PLO Masters and now moves into pole position (to be confirmed) in the Player of the Series race.
Top spinning Thomas!
