Dutchman Mateusz Moolhuizen took down the Unibet Open Malta main event after beating 292 players to the top prize of €117,000. Moolhuizen’s final opponent in the €1,650 buy-in event was fellow countryman Tobias Peters.

Moolhuizen held the chip lead going into the heads up, however that was to change many times within the three hours the Dutch men tangled.

Finally, while out in front, Moolhuizen moved all in with K-10 and Peters called with K-6 which stayed behind. Peters took home €76,000 from a total prize pool of €417,525 for his runner-up finish.

Here are the final results and payouts:

1. Mateusz Moolhuizen €117,000
2. Tobias Peters €76,000
3. Sampo Rynanen €49,000
4. Rodolfo Gaddo €32,000
5. Mikkel Christensen €23,500
