The Nations Cup was a culmination of regional competitions with the winners heading to Bratislava equipped with a Coolbet Open package and an invite to the Nations Cup final table.

The action was competitive and it took some time before the first two players in the European qualifier in Norway’s Stig Solskjaer Johansen and Sebastian Andres Viedma Olivares hit the rail. More time passed before Iceland’s Hjoertur Davidsson and Finland’s Jaakko Hokkanen also lost their stacks.

Chip leads were flying back and forth with stacks short. The bubble broke after Canada’s Eric Beausoleil and Javier Villegas Guerrero lost their short stacks. Sweden’s Christian Saeby’s remarkable performance ended in the money in third place for €4,000 while Estonia’s Taavi Vaelisson finished one spot better in second place for €6,000.
