This season’s bwin.be-sponsored WPT National Brussels Main Event attracted 428 entries, generating a prize pool of €280,233. The top 54 players reached the money, and after an aggressive heads-up battle, where both Laurent Polito and the runner-up Michal Mrakes held the cheap lead, Polito was once again in the winner’s circle. On the final hand, Polito’s ace-king suited held up against Mrakes’ queen-eight off suit, giving him the WPT National Chrystal trophy and the first-place prize money.
Acording to the Hendon Mob, now Laurent Polito has over $1,400,000 in live tournaments earnings.
