Fantasy poker: The shootout

Just two fantasy poker selections remain in the Main Event and with TERRORFISH exiting the competition along with Toni Merivuori, three teams are vying for the €1,100 prize package to Prague.

Two entrants invested in the talents of Gøkmen Cetin and it is the Dane who leads the way with 393,000 chips, largely accumulated in a huge hand in the final levels of Day 2.

Janusthor 23 and Cetin himself, under the guise of nickname poker$gyk, will be hoping he can earn a winning score.

In keeping with fantasy poker rules, the entrants would then be forced to play heads-up for the prize on ParadisePoker.com, with the winner earning his buy-in plus €550 to spend on the next Season Two leg.

Dvinyard – aka Johnny Jensen – could yet follow in his mother’s footsteps after Susanne won the inaugural fantasy poker game at the London event.

The ParadisePoker pro backed PPT regular Robert Haigh (pictured) to bring home the points, and while the German player battled to keep his head above water for much of the competition, the momentum finally swung his was on Day 2.

Haigh could yet be dangerous now he has some 247,000 chips to work with, so the shootout is on for Vienna’s fantasy poker crown. Cetin or Haigh – who are you backing?
