The 2024 World Series of Poker Europe (WSOPE) has been in full swing for over two thrilling weeks at King's Resort in Rozvadov, and now the moment everybody has been waiting for is finally here as Event #13: €10,350 Main Event NLH European Championship kicks off at noon today.
Since the inception of the WSOPE in 2007, players have flocked to the Old Continent every year seeking one of the most elusive prizes in the poker world — a WSOP Main Event bracelet. Every year, the competition gets fiercer, and the dream of becoming part of poker history drives players to leave it all on the felt in a true test of poker skill and endurance.
Last year, Max Neugebauer battled his way through the record-setting field of 817 entries to claim his first bracelet and the €1,500,000 top prize. Neugebauer made an unforgettable hero call against Taiwan's Eric Tsai which sealed victory and carved his name into the history books. Now, with the Main Event about to begin, the question on everyone’s mind is — who will rise to claim the next crown?

With around 2,500 chips in the pot on a flop of J♦2♦5♣, Omar Eljach checked it over to Paco Kaplan, who fired a bet of 1,100. Eljach then check-raised to 5,000, and Kaplan called.
A J♥ dropped on the turn and Eljach made an overbet by placing a chip worth 25,000 into the pot. Kaplan called.
When the 8♣ landed on the river, Eljach took a while before he shoved for a little under 70,000. Kaplan removed his sunglasses and stared at Eljach, then after around thirty seconds he made the call.
Eljach tabled 2♣2♥ for a full house, and Kaplan's Q♠J♣ went down in flames, which left him with just one percent of the starting stack. A few hands later, Kaplan hit the rail.

With the board showing 8♠Q♦A♦K♦9♠ and around 31,000 already in the pot, Aliaksandr Shylko, first to act in the small blind, led out with a bet of 26,000.
Mateusz Moolhuizen took his time before deciding to shove all in. The pressure was back on Shylko, who had to choose whether to risk his tournament life. After a brief tank, Shylko folded, allowing Moolhuizen to scoop a solid pot early in the event.
