Greenwood moved all in and O'Dwyer tossed in his last chip. Greenwood showed him 5♥5♠ for a set and O'Dwyer mucked A♦K♦ before making his exit.

Thomas Boivin was also recently eliminated after Daniel Dvoress called his river all-in shove with aces and sixes. "Are you disappointed the ace came so you couldn't just call him with a six," tablemate Sam Grafton said.

"I wasn't calling turn to fold river," Dvoress replied.

Poker's Elite Come Out to Shine in the First €25,000 Event at EPT Paris

dsalituro

Le Palais de Congres plays host to some of the biggest names in poker today when the first €25,000 No-Limit Hold’em event of the 2024 PokerStars European Poker Tour Paris festival begins at 2 p.m. local time.

This is the first of six events at this buy-in level that will be played here in Paris. Last year’s events were won by a veritable who’s who of elite players, including Chris Brewer and Stephen Chidwick.

2023 EPT Paris €25,000 Results

Champion	Entries	Earnings	Runner-Up
Chris Brewer	44	€357,180	Felipe Ketzer
Teun Mulder	51	€389,870	Tauan Naves
Stephen Chidwick	40	€324,500	Adrian Mateos

Players begin the event with 100,000 chips and will play 30-minute levels. There is a 75-minute dinner break at the end of Level 10, with late registration closing once action resumes which should come around 8:45 p.m. Players are allowed a single reentry during the registration period.

This event utilizes a 30-second shot clock for the duration of the tournament. Players receive six time banks to start and get an extra one at the beginning of every odd-numbered level. This is a single-day event, so there is a chance it will be a late night by the time a champion is crowned.

Stay tuned as PokerNews provides all the live updates throughout the day.
