EPT Copenhagen Final Table is set!

Ladies and gentlemen! The Final Table of the EPT Copenhagen is set! Although there aren't really familiar faces (as far as I know), but the Scandinavia dominates this year's Copenhagen tournament. After three days of painstaking grind, the final table is now set to eight lucky players, competing for the €834,590 main prize.

The most noticable eliminations included the Russian Alexander Kravchenko, who was eliminated in a coinflip situation when his A6s didn't get any help against a pair of fives and Luca Pagano, the last remaining PS pro was eliminated right before the dinnerbreak.

The table is set, the stakes are high, the chips are ready fly. It's time to look at the final setting of the battle that'll take tomorrow. As we can see, the field is being dominated by Scandinavians with a total head count of 5 out of 8 being from this royal European region. Two players came from across the ocean from the land of the free. Also, one Frenchman made it down to the final 8 and will show just how angry Piérre is. So here goes!
