A deal is done, but Marek seizes command

Continuing his ascent, Marek Viscak stole the chip lead in the heads-up duel after making a deal for all but €2,950 of the prize pool.

Aske Muff had the edge initially and so took €20,000, while Viscak was awarded €18,000.

With the PPT trophy still up for grabs, as well as the remaining cash, the players immediately set about the score by getting it all-in on a K♥-7♠-8♥ flop.

Muff turned a top pair king holding K♦9♥, but it was his rival's flush draw (J♥2♥) that connected on the turn to swing the pendulum his way.
