In a nail-biting showdown, Nikolaos Konstas found himself all-in and called by Andrea Lando in a dramatic heads-up hand that could determine the winner of the MPF Grand Event. As both players revealed their cards, the excitement grew:

• Nikolaous Konstas – J♥10♦
• Andrea Lando – A♦5♣

The flop brought the A♠4♠Q♠ and with an ace in the window, Lando took the lead. Konstas, however, still had outs, needing a king to complete a straight. As spectators held their breath, the turn revealed the 3♠, opening the possibility of a split pot with another spade.

But as the dealer flipped the river card, it wasn’t the salvation Konstas was hoping for. With that, Andrea Lando claimed the final pot, leaving Konstas to finish in an impressive 2nd place.

It was a phenomenal run for Nikolaous Konstas, who played some brilliant poker and showed resilience and strategy throughout the event. For his exceptional efforts, he takes home €93,000, a well-deserved prize for a well-fought battle.
