MonteDam Swing Winner Andreas Klatt Among Notables in the Field
Even at this early stage of proceedings, there are still a number of notables in the field. These include Ionel Anton who, with almost $2m in lifetime earnings, is third on the Romanian all-time money list.
Joining him in the field is fellow Romanian Carmen Zainescu. Zainescu's best result came in 2016 when she finished sixth in the Eureka Bucharest Main Event for just under €23,000.
Finally, there is Andreas Klatt. Earlier this year Klatt enjoyed the best two weeks any poker player could dream of. First he won the PokerStars Championship Monte Carlo National Championship for €151,000 and then followed that up with a second place finish in the Main Event for just over €400,000.
He wasn't finished there. In partnership with the WPT in Amsterdam and the MonteDam Swing, Klatt headed to Amsterdam where he just missed out on a final table spot in the WPT Main Event, finishing 10th for €13,000.
