2025 PLO Grand Slam
Nível: 22
Blinds: 50,000/125,000
Ante: 125,000

Back in November, a champion was crowned the first Diamond Poker Series €10,300 PLO Grand Slam Championship. The player who went by the nickname "Benjamin N" secured himself the largest part of the €1,203,200 prize pool in a four-way deal before finishing in style by shipping the trophy and the extra €20,000, totaling his winnings to €219,200.
He defeated another anonymous player, nicknamed "Phil Ejri", during a short, jovial, and volatile heads-up. "Phil Ejri" took home €166,500 for his efforts, while fourth-place finisher Nikolaos Lampropoulos and bronze medalist Lautaro Guerra walked away with €190,800 and €170,700 respectively.
Day 1 chipleader Harun Ertural and two-time bracelet winner Alex Livingston were eliminated from the final table before the deal discussions began.

The short-stacked Christos Argyriadis raised his small blind to 300,000. Youness Barakat called in the big blind and quickly called once Argyriadis tossed in his final 450,000 on the 5?7?2? flop.
Christos Argyriadis: A?K?9?6?
Youness Barakat: A?7?5?3?
Barakat flopped two pair, and although Argyriadis turned a flush draw on the J?, the 6? river saw Barakat's hand hold up to secure the knock-out.

"Lion King" raised to 250,000 as first to act. Youness Barakat called on the button and Hossein Ensan defended his big blind.
The 6?3?K? flop was checked to "Lion King", who continued for 300,000. Barakat quickly got out of the way, but Ensan stuck in a call.
The 5? appeared on the turn, prompting Ensan to put his opponent all-in for 875,000. "Lion King" spent some time in the tank but ultimately decided to muck his cards and leave himself with just under nine big blinds.

Ronald Keijzer open-raised to 350,000 in the hijack and was met with a three-bet to 1,200,000 by Fabian Riebau-Schmithals on the button. The action folded back to Keijzer, who called with only 375,000 back.
He then check-called all-in on the 4?K?K? flop as the cards were revealed.
Ronald Keijzer: K?9?8?7?
Fabian Riebau-Schmithals: A?10?10?2?
Riebau-Schmithals needed to hit a ten to knock Keijzer out, but he failed to do so on the 2?8? runout, doubling up the Dutchman instead.

Tom Vogelsang had open-raised preflop and saw Nino Pansier defend his big blind. Pansier then led out for 260,000 on the 6?5?10? flop, which Vogelsang called.
The 8? turn saw Pansier size up to 800,000, after which Vogelsang jammed all in for 2,675,000. Pansier snap-called and the cards went on their backs.
Tom Vogelsang: J?9?8?5?
Nino Pansier: 9?9?7?5?
Pansier had turned the nuts, leaving Vogelsang drawing to a flush or higher straight. The Q? river brought him said straight, doubling him up and nearing Pansier in the chip counts.
