The 1,500 CHF WSOPC Main Event drew a total of 587 entries to the popular alpine poker venue. The prize pool reached an impressive 792,450 CHF, just surpassing the original guarantee of three-quarters of a million Swiss francs.
Entering the final day as the chipleader was Hungarian player David Kozma. Also catching a lot of attention was the defending champion from the March edition, Frenchman Benjamin Hammann, who was aiming for an unprecedented back-to-back victory in Liechtenstein.
Kozma couldn't maintain his lead and was eliminated in 5th place. Hammann got closer to the title, but his hopes of defending it were dashed in 3rd place.
Entering the final Swiss heads-up, Gubser had a significant lead. However, Fröhli showcased a remarkable comeback in the 90-minute showdown, seizing control of the table, and in the final hand with J s 9 d, he defeated Gubser's T h 8 d.
