The Brits dominated the finale yesterday both at the table and on the rail; the top three stacks were Toby Lewis, Sam Trickett and former soccer player Teddy Sheringham. The final table chip count was as seen below.
It was Rob Hollink to be eliminated first in a showdown with Sheringham, who also won a bigger pot from Trickett. The 51-time national footballer played extraordinary well and eventually finished 5th, winning €93,120, which is his best achievement in poker ever. With the quick elimination of Trickett and Lee, leaving Jacobson and Lewis at the table, the heads-up phase ensued before long. The clash of the two took around three hours, when Jacobson went all-in with 95 and Lewis called with 5 5. The flop was A 9 T , the turn 5, the river T, making it a full house for Lewis.
The winnings were as follows:
