The Final Table Was A Romanian Affair

Razvan Morar, a local Romanian player, emerged victorious in the Main Event, claiming the €37k top prize. Despite starting at a disadvantage during the final table and facing a three-to-one chip deficit in the heads-up showdown against fellow Romanian Florin Elisei, Morar staged a remarkable comeback, eventually seizing all the chips and the coveted top prize.
