Poker players in Bucharest have spent the past week living it up as the latest 888poker LIVE event rolled through town. Things wrapped up on Monday with local player Andrei Racolta taking down the Main Event for €71,042 ($87,628 US) and his first career live win.
The first series of the opening 888Live Festival wrapped up Monday at King’s Casino in Rozadov, Czech Republic as Catalin ‘SrylGotOdds’ Pop defeated a field of 531 entrants to claim top honors. The appropriately priced €888 Main Event had a €300,000 guarantee that was easily surpassed and the final table live-streamed on Twitch.
