The MPN poker tour has finally come to an end.
However, the last MPN poker main event was nothing short of exciting, and Martin Piik will be the last player to ever win an MPN main event.
Piik won the 23rd and the final MPNPT much to the excitement of his rail which kept cheering him on during the final table.
In fact, he is the youngest poker player to win the MPNPT title. He is only 23 years old.
The main event attracted a total of 575 entries, each hoping to scoop the 52,000 euros first place prize. From the payout structure, only 71 players finished in the money, led by Martin Piik.
The final table was diverse with six players from different countries. The finalists also had diverse backgrounds.
It featured an MPN employee (bot detection specialist), a firefighter, a recruitment consultant, a travel specialist, two finance specialists, and two poker professionals.
Piik’s win was no fluke. He had to be on top of his game to finish in 1st place. Suprisingly, he has only played 10 live tournaments throughout his career which makes his latest success even more remarkable.
Interestingly, he managed to make it to Madrid after winning the trip at Olybet.

Keimo Suominen fails to fin his second MPNPT main event
When the field narrowed down to 20 players, nobody would have predicted Piik’s victory. Actually, Suominen was on track to win his second MPNPT main event. However, that was not to be the case. He was eliminated in 11th place.
Since the MPN poker tour was incepted, every main event has been won by a different player.
With curtains falling on MPN, we can only wish they extended their stay in the poker community. However, a decision has already been made and there’s nothing we can do. MPNPT left an indelible mark and upcoming poker tours should strive to emulate them.
