May 2019
The third edition of Coolbet Open was played on 7-12 May in Tallinn but as the final table in the Main Event was set, there were flashbacks of the October 2018 event.
On the final table was the October winner Mats Albertsen as well as Mathias Siljander from Finland, who was third back then. And they would once again show that they are great poker players.
Albertsen was very close to a back-to-back win but had to settle with third place and €25,100. Siljander would not settle for just another podium finish this time and went all the way to claim the win and €60,100! Very impressive display by the two players as there was a total of 531 entries in the event!

Side Events
There were a total of 31 side events, where a trophy was given out in 21 of the events.
Two of the trophies went to Khaled Hammoud from Finland who is no stranger to win at Coolbet Open. At the May 2018 event he also managed to win two trophies, taking his total tally up to four trophies!
Among the winners were also Anders Auset from Norway, who won event 3. He later went on to finish second in the Main Event.
