At the Autumn Series at Portomaso Casino, following the Mini Italian Poker Sport (IPS), the Italian Poker Sport (IPS) has now also come to a close. In the end, the victory and prize money of €200,000 went to Alberto Furnari of Italy.
Over ten starting days of the €340 + 50 Italian Poker Sport (IPS), 5,552 entries were recorded. This meant that the €1.5 million guarantee was exceeded at the 59th edition of the IPS. The prize pool totaled €1,774,419. The top 277 players finished in the money, and 55 players reached the final day. At the final table, however, Alberto Furnari had the smallest stack. But little by little, the Italian worked his way up through the field.
Danny Lewis Strange, who had held the largest chip stack among the final nine players, was eliminated in fourth place, earning him €69,000. Werner Schroons ultimately finished in third place, which was rewarded with €100,000. The heads-up match turned into an all-Italian showdown.
In the final hand, Furnari held 
and faced 
from his compatriot Persico. After the flop and turn—
