Three-Way Deal in the 20,000 MAD High Roller

The most expensive event of the WPTDeepStacks Marrakech Season 2018-2019 festival at the Casino de Marrakech Es Saadi was the 20,000 MAD (approximately 1,800 EUR) High Roller and a field of 157 entries emerged to create a prize pool of more than 2.7 million MAD (Moroccan Dirhams).

Only the top 20 spots finished in the money and the nine-handed final table was set at midnight with several notables still in contention. The sole remaining local player, Anas Tadini, had to settle for 9th place and was followed by Jean Montury and Marius Conan, among others. At close to 5 a.m. the final three agreed on a deal and it was Portugal’s Henrique Pinho that took home the biggest prize after shaking hands with Clement Delacroix and Parham Ahoor.
