Winner!
Winner!
And with that, Event 2 comes to a close with plenty of time left to hit the bar, or possibly the slopes for those inclined towards a little night skiing. Our 63 runners were whittled down to one in just eight hours, including a break for dinner, and it couldn't have been a more jovial gentleman who took down the top prize in this high speed tournament, as well as reclaiming his decorative €70 from next to the trophy.

Join us here at PokerNews.com tomorrow at 2pm local time, when we'll be back at the Alpine Palace Hotel for the €100+10 No-Limit Hold'em with Bounties. Until then, good night from Saalbach-Hinterglemm!

Stephan Inhester Eliminated in Second Place (€1,920)

After a short battle, it's all over.

Mark Vos had been joking about running the clock down so his opponent would have to pay a bigger big blind, but he didn't have to in the end. With Stephan Inhester limping from the button, Vos dwelt for a few moments before announcing, "I will raise, 99,000."

"All in!" declared his foe abruptly.

"Call," said Vos.

Vos = {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}
Inhester = {K-Clubs}{10-Spades}

The {5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{A-Clubs} flop was pretty emphatic, and although the {Q-Clubs} turn teased a cheeky backdoor straight, it didn't quite arrive on the {Q-Spades} river and Vos was the victor.

Inhester-Call

Before Stephan Inhester had even thrown in his 14,000 big blind, Mark Vos was busy announcing "All in" and waving his hand forward nonchalantly. A quick check at his cards though, and Inhester was pushing his chips forward in equal measure. He was, in fact, an inch or two in front...

Vos = {9-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Inhester = {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}

Board = {7-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}

... and the shorter of the two stacks doubles through.

The Show Must Go On

[user4144]

At one point, the players were asked if they wanted a break, but judging by the answer, it was as if they'd been asked if Christmas should be canceled.

A resounding "No" was followed by Mark Vos asking, "Can you put some money on the table?" After receiving no response, he threw €70 next to the trophy and added, "It's like the WPT now."

Players Tighten Up

Following Stephan Inhester's double-up, the play became a little cagier with plenty of limping, checking, and folding to moderate bets on the flop or turn.

Incidentally, the lovely glass trophy has now appeared on the table, garnished with the €70 that is all that Vos had on him. He wanted to make it look more festive, it seems.

Inhester Doubles Up, Vos Acquires Whisky

Going into the heads-up match, Mark Vos had a 3-to-1 chip lead, but almost immediately Stephan Inhester evened the score. A cheerfully aggressive Vos, by now in possession of a vicious-looking Irish coffee, announced "All in" from the button, and Inhester quickly called all in.

Inhester: {A-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}
Vos: {10-Spades} {3-Spades}

Board: {6-Spades} {7-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}

With 200,000 in chips apiece, the heads-up play continued.

Rasmus Gandrup Eliminated in Third Place (€1,280)

Mark Vos raised to 25,000 from the button, Stephan Inhester passed in the small blind, and Rasmus Gandrup called in the big.

"That makes things complicated now," commented Vos. "I have to play against you."

On the {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{6-Spades} flop, Gandrup checked, Vos bet 30,000, Rasmus announced "All in," and just as quickly, Vos made the call.

Vos = {A-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Gandrup = {4-Spades}{3-Spades}

Turn = {A-Diamonds}
River = {J-Clubs}

And then there were two...

Vos Folds to a Reraise; May Start Drinking if He Can Find a Valet

Clearly needs a drink

Mark Vos raised to 24,000 on the button and then attempted to order several double Irish coffees from a dealer. While he was doing that, Stephan Inhester reraised all in from the small blind. "How much is that?" asked Vos, temporarily losing interest in the Irish coffee. "For you, special price," said Inhester. "And exactly what price is that?" continued Vos. The price was a total of 84,300. Inhester made some sort of odd hand gesture. Vos did not know what that particular hand gesture meant. Vos folded.
