From the opening flights, players here went straight through to the final table. For advancing, each player secured a reward of €400 in their casino account. An additional €43,500 awaited the winner in addition to this reward.

As many as 5 German-speaking players made it to the final table and even the chipleader was Austrian player Peter Gavril-Dorel. He eventually made it to heads-up play, where German player Frand Roland Schmueser sat against him. Schmueser started heads-up play with a stack of up to 68 million, while Gavril-Dorel had just 17,500,000. Schmueser eventually robbed his opponent of all his chips and emerged as the winner, earning himself €43,900. Gavril-Dorel took home €25,700 for his second place finish, and both also earned the aforementioned ticket to the WSOPE European Championship.
