Hungarian Sándor Maté Champion of WPT Prime Slovakia

The inaugural WPT Prime Slovakia Main Event has crowned its first champion. It was Sándor Maté who emerged victorious in Card Casino, Bratislava, and took home €109,660 for the win and a €12,500 WPT Passport package for WPT World Championship.

Polish Szymon Bujok, who came to the final table as a chip leader, was closely followed by Maté and Marco Niederdeppe. Bujok didn’t have the best day as he got out of the last day way less than he probably expected when he hit the rail in 6^th place. German Niederdeppe was the one giving him another bad beat.

When there were three players left, Hungarian Sándor Maté got into the lead, which he never let go. He already had more chips than Niederdeppe and Dmitry Lineburg combined, and when he eliminated Israeli, he started heads-up with a 3:1 chip lead.

Only nine hands were needed for Maté to finish what he had started. First, he knocked down German to only 12 big blinds and then waited for an opportunity when Niederdeppe pushed all-in with Q8 and was dominated by Sándor’s KQ.
Board came 774 4 5, and it was all over for the inaugural WPT Prime Slovakia.

Congrats to Sándor Maté!
