The tournament, with a buy-in of €300, saw a total of 1,120 entries over seven starting flights and a single 'Flip & Go' day. Despite collecting approximately €336,000 in entry fees, it fell significantly short of the €500,000 guarantee, resulting in a massive overlay by the casino.

The last 23 players returned for the final day, having secured their spots from the preliminary stages of the tournament. The motivation was high, as the top ten players also received a special €3,000 package for the autumn King's Million European Championship Festival, aside from the financial prizes.
Greek representative Georgios Lekkakos delivered a focused performance throughout the decisive day, entering the final table as the chipleader. He maintained the lead, advancing to the final heads-up against Lidor Kadosh.
Kadosh decided to take a risk in the second hand of heads-up, going all-in with Q d 8 c after the flop A s 7 h K h. Lekkakos called with K d 6 c, and the turn 6 d sealed his victory.
