Player heads to Copenhagen via Hollywood

By Sarah Polson

The European Poker Tour Scandinavian Open begins Tuesday in Copenhagen, and one PokerListings.com player will be in the mix courtesy of Hollywood Poker.

Gonz13 won the EPT freeroll at Hollywood Poker, which the site hosted exclusively for PokerListings.com players Jan. 27. It saw 39 players sit down in the final event to try to earn a seat to the Copenhagen event.

To qualify for the freeroll, players who had signed up through PokerListings.com had to do one of the following:

• Finish in the top five of any weekly PokerListings.com $1,000 freeroll.
• Be in the top five PokerListings.com players for Hollywood points any week before the freeroll.
• Be the last PokerListings.com player standing in selected open Hollywood Poker tourneys (list sent each week).

 

Of the players that made it into the EPT freeroll, Gonz13 was the lucky one to pick up the $10,000 prize package to go to the Scandinavian Open. There was also $5,000 in cash spread out from second to 12th place.

The results of the freeroll were as follows:

Place	Name	Prize
1st	Gonz13	$10k prize package
2nd	GUEST_STAR_	$1,050
3rd	jukach	$700
4th	MAYOTE	$550
5th	st-michael1	$400

9th	MrStrange	$250
10th	jackdory	$250
11th	Call_me_down	$200
12th	marromarro	$200

PokerListings.com players at Hollywood Poker will get another shot at another EPT seat March 9. This time they'll be playing for a prize package for the San Remo, Italy, event.

The final freeroll will also spread $5,000 from second place deep into the playing field.
