The hand after Thomas Santerne joined the table, Enrico Camosci raised from the button and Santerne called in the big blind. After bets on the flop, Camosci took down the pot when he fired the turn. He showed Q?J? for a straight on the K?7?10?A? board.
The following hand, Camosci raised to 4,000 from the hijack, Mihails Nikitins called on the button, and Steve O'Dwyer called in the big blind.
The flop came K?5?5? and Camosci checked. Action checked to Nikitins, who made it 9,000 to go. O'Dwyer then check-raised to 25,000 and his opponents folded to give him the pot.

The road to PokerStars European Poker Tour glory always has plenty of twists and turns, and the record-breaking 2023 EPT €5,300 Prague Main Event was no exception.
Jon Kyte, who had led the tournament from Day 3, entered the finale with 229 big blinds and a historic chip lead, one that was assumed to be unassailable. Padraig O'Neill had other ideas and was unexpectedly awarded the final EPT Trophy of the 2023 season after overcoming the Norwegian in heads-up play.
Known affectionately as "Smidge" in the Irish poker community, O'Neill came into the day as the shortest stack and turned his 12 big blinds into a €1,030,000 payout. With the victory, he became Ireland's second-ever EPT Main Event champion, 11 years after Steve O'Dwyer reigned supreme in Monte Carlo.
