Share

Fabian Quoss managed to bink the €50.000 Single-Day Super High Roller at the 2016 EPT Grand Final in Monte Carlo for €849.059. In heads-up play he made a deal with no one less than fellow German Ole Schemion, who won the €100.000 Super High Roller two days earlier for nearly €1.6 million.

A total of 62 players dug deep in their pockets to buy-in for the one day event, with an additional 8 rebuys, creating a prize pool of €3.430.000. Nine of these players reached the money and were guaranteed a €98.480 payday. The final table, as expected, had a lot of noteable names, such as Fedor Holz, David Peters and Steve O’Dwyer.

After 17 hours of play, Quoss and Schemion were the last men standing. After making a deal, chipleader Schemion secured €857.241 and Quoss took a guaranteed €799.059 with €50.000 left to play for. The action started off a bit slow with some limps and shoves, but the tables turned when Schemion shoved with the Ks3s and got called by Quoss’ As7h. After a board of AhThTs3dKh all of a sudden Quoss held the chiplead.

After a few more hands Quoss was in good shape again when he called Schemion’s shove. Schemion had shoved with another suited king; Kc5c. Quoss made the easy call with AdQs and after a flop of As4h8d it was all but over. The Qc on the turn left Schemion drawing dead and after the 3s on the river the players shook hands.
