After three days of four-card poker, an anonymous player was crowned the Diamond Poker Series €10,300 PLO Grand Slam Champion at Arena Casino Tirana. The player who went by the nickname "Benjamin N" throughout the tournament secured himself the largest part of the €1,203,200 prize pool in a four-way deal before finishing in style by shipping the trophy and the extra €20,000 which the players had reserved for first place, totaling his winnings to €219,200.
He defeated another anonymous player, nicknamed "Phil Ejri", during a short, jovial, and volatile heads-up. "Phil Ejri" took home €166,500 for his efforts, while fourth-place finisher Nikolaos Lampropoulos and bronze medalist Lautaro Guerra walked away with €190,800 and €170,700 respectively. Meanwhile, the likes of Day 1 chip leader Harun Ertural and two-time bracelet winner Alex Livingston were eliminated from the final table before the deal discussions began

Winner's Reaction
"It feels amazing to win the trophy," the champion stated after all was said and done. "I came here for the great guarantees. There are not many 5K and 10K events around out there, so it looked nice."
When asked about his love for the great game of pot-limit Omaha, "Benjamin N" had a simple answer: "That's what I play. I love PLO tournaments. It's just fun. It's been an amazing venue and an amazing city. I'll be back."
Day 3 Action
The day started with 11 returning players from a total of 128 entries. Brazilian Belarmino De Souza looked to be the first casualty of the day when he jammed his kings into the aces of the eventual champion "Benjamin N" and was left with just one big blind.
However, miraculously, €5,200 PLO Opener winner Aaron Pahlawani and the short-stacked Stefan Polster busted before him. De Souza laddered up and made the final table against all odds.
On the first hand of the final table, De Souza got his aces cracked and still headed to the rail. In the meantime, start-of-day chip leader "Phil Ejri" had gotten short after a brutal early beat against Dimitrios Amoiridis.
He then got his chips in against Livingston with top set and held for the double-up. Livingston was left with just one small blind, but, like De Souza, he made a miracle pay jump as Vasil Medarov was eliminated before him in a full house over full house situation.
Livingston would follow shortly thereafter, and mere minutes later Ertural also said his goodbyes when he bluffed all-in against Guerra. Five-handed, Amoiridis had a solid chip lead. However, after losing several big pots over the next two hours, he was left shortest. He busted when his aces could not improve against the flopped two pair of "Phil Ejri", and was the last elimination before the remaining four players would strike a deal.
Four-Way Stalemate
At the start of four-handed play, the possibility of a deal started being discussed. However, Guerra quickly shut it down and the tournament continued as normal. The players went on to trade pots and double-ups back and forth during the next three hours. By that point, the average stack had shrunk to 20 big blinds and all players were quite close in chips, prompting another inquiry for a deal.
This time, Guerra agreed. The numbers were quickly decided on and the players started to relax as the ICM pressure mostly dissipated. It took half an hour longer for Lampropoulos to bite the dust, getting his aces cracked by "Benjamin N". Guerra was eliminated by "Phil Ejri" another 30 minutes later, and the two anonymous players prepared for a heads-up battle.
The average stack was still just 25 big blinds when the heads-up began, leading to lots of action. In a short span of 15 minutes, "Phil Ejri" overcame the two-to-one chip advantage "Benjamin N" had at the start by doubling up before "Benjamin N" retook the lead as he doubled himself only a few hands later.
The third all-in would be the final one of the tournament. "Phil Ejri" got his 17 remaining big blinds in with top pair against "Benjamin N"s flush draw. "Benjamin N" had his opponent drawing dead as the turn made his flush and the two players shared some jokes before "Phil Ejri" left to pick up his payout.
"Benjamin N" stayed behind and admired his new trophy while many other players in the tournament room, all of which "Benjamin N" had battled with in the past week, came to say their congratulations.
That concludes the live report for the first-ever Diamond Poker Series. However, with seven-figure guarantees being broken and an overall positive reception, it might not be the last.

- Understanding Rummy: A Complete Guide The popular card game of rummy has enthralled players worldwide with its combination of strategy, skill, & a little bit of luck. Fundamentally, the game is about using the cards that are dealt to each player to form sets and runs. The goal is to be the first to combine all of your cards into legal combinations using a standard 52-card deck. At the conclusion of their turn, players must discard one card after drawing a card from the discard pile or the stockpile, according to the fundamental rules. 25-02-26
- Players need to become familiar with the game's mechanics & rules in order to succeed at Rummy Grand. A draw pile is created from the remaining cards after each player is dealt a predetermined number of cards. In order to strengthen their hands by creating legitimate combinations, players alternately draw from the draw pile or the discard pile. 25-02-26
- Also, think about how your use of jokers might affect the strategies of your opponents. For example, using a joker to finish a meld might indicate to other players that you are about to declare your hand. Jokers can therefore be used to their full potential while minimizing any advantages you might unintentionally give your opponents. This requires striking a balance between their use and strategic discretion. 25-02-26
- The ability to create sets and sequences that might otherwise be impossible is made possible by holding a joker. You can finish a set without requiring another card of the same rank, for instance, if you have two cards of the same rank and a joker. Because of their adaptability, players can change their tactics at any time, which makes jokers incredibly useful in high-stakes scenarios. But it's crucial to use jokers sparingly. Although they can aid in completing melds, if you keep them for too long and are unable to combine them with your other cards, you may lose out on opportunities. 25-02-26
- More frequent watering may be required during the hot summer months due to increased evaporation; however, always check the soil moisture before adding more water to prevent soaking the roots. A crucial procedure for preserving Rummy Bloom's health and appearance is pruning. Deadheading, or removing spent flowers, on a regular basis encourages the plant to bloom more throughout the growing season. This technique not only improves the plant's aesthetic appeal but also keeps it from focusing its energy on producing seeds. 25-02-26
- Players who successfully combine cards are rewarded by the game's special scoring system, while those who don't do so are penalized. Gaining an understanding of these fundamental components is essential to cultivating a winning mindset. Players must be mindful of the psychological elements of Rummy Grand, such as reading their opponents and controlling their own emotions. Developing a successful Rummy Grand strategy necessitates a combination of critical thinking & flexibility. 25-02-26
- Knowing what your opponents are doing is just as crucial in Rummy Grand as paying attention to your own hand. Critical information about their tactics and goals can be gleaned from watching them play. The cards they select from the discard pile can reveal which melds they are attempting to finish, so pay attention to them. It could be prudent to modify your own strategy if you observe that an opponent routinely picks up particular ranks or suits. 25-02-26
- You can adjust your gameplay to effectively counteract strengths or exploit weaknesses by identifying these patterns. In addition to expanding your strategic options, this level of awareness makes the table more competitive. Knowing when to stop playing a round in Rummy Grand can be just as important as knowing when to play aggressively. 25-02-26
