Stefan Ericsson Wins Pokerfinnkampen 2011Finns Dominate Poker Weekend But Swede Wins Overall Title in Estonia |
|
Swedish poker player Stefan Ericsson has won the overall title at the sixth annual Pokerfinnkampen at Reval Park Hotel & Casino, Tallinn, Estonia.
This unique weekend-long festival sees players compete across individual, team, and Terminator categories.
The two-day main event attracted 131 players and was won by Finn Jari-Pekka Honkala who lifted €10,218 plus a trip to Miami for two. His victory – and the fact that Sweden only had one player at the final table – helped propel Finland to the team event title for the sixth year in succession.
Ericsson’s fifth place finish as well as his victory in the Terminator competition (points gained for knocking out a player from a foreign country, points deducted for knocking out a player from your own country) secured him enough points to lift the overall title as well as €,2947 for his fifth place finish and €1,310 for his Terminator win.
