Peters and Cohen Trail Czuczor At 6-Handed PokerStars EPT Prague Final Table
- Updated: December 18, 2016
The penultimate day of the record-breaking 2016 PokerStars European Poker Tour €5,300 Main Event saw just 18 hopefuls out of a 1,192-entry strong field return to the tables of the Hilton Hotel in Prague. Jasper Meijer van Putten led the survivors into Day 5 and the Dutchman will return tomorrow. However, it’s Marton Czuczor that takes the spotlight overnight after the official six-handed final table was set.
Czuczor bagged up 9,710,000 followed by David Peters with 8,880,000. The duo has established a solid lead over the rest of the field; Sergei Petrushevskii follows in third with 5,265,000 and Sam Cohen (4,520,000), Meijer van Putten (3,815,000) and Marius Gierse (3,550,000) complete the final table line-up.
The first player to join the rail on Day 5 was Martin Kabrhel. Similar to the previous days, the Czech was very vocal at the tables and three-bet almost his entire short stack after an open-raise by Stefan Fabian. The latter called and a paired king-high board was checked through. Fabian shoved when a seven appeared on the turn and Kabrhel eventually called it off with ace-jack. Fabian turned over seven-eight suited and send Kabrhel packing after the river was a blank.

Jukka Paloniemi followed next when he shoved his jack-ten into the ace-king of Cohen. An ace on the flop and a jack on the turn kept the better hand preflop in the lead and Paloniemi had to settle for 17th place.
Right after the last 16 were redrawn, two players were eliminated on the feature table in quick succession. Josip Vidovic moved in from under the gun with king-queen suited and Janos Kurtosi reshoved with ace-king. The board ran out jack-high. The last remaining Team PokerStars Pro, Brazil’s Felipe Ramos, followed soon after. Ramos three-bet shoved for just under 10 big blinds with king-queen and the ace-jack of initial raiser Kurtosi stayed ahead on another jack-high board.
