Lithuanian Rytis Taujanskas took the lead quite early, in the two-table phase. Rytis managed to maintain the first position until the end of the tournament, and at the final table, he had more than half of all the chips in play.

The most important hand of the tournament was played at the five-handed table. Rytis with A♣Q♦J♣3♦ managed to defeat his closest pursuer, the Frenchman Elim, who held K♠K♦8♠5♣. The flop came 5♦2♦5♥, the turn was A♠, but the river showed 7♦, allowing the Lithuanian to make a flush.

After eliminating the Frenchman, Rytis had about 80% of all the chips in play. After eliminating Belgian Jorden Verbraeken, the Lithuanian was left to compete against two women. However, his huge chip lead left no chance for the female competitors.

This €111,000 win was the biggest of Rytis's career. Before this tournament, the Lithuanian had won a little over €15,000 in official tournaments, so this victory is a significant achievement for him.
