Season 3 Highlights

Season 3 of Italy’s biggest poker tour was a huge success, with massive prize pools and IPT titles awarded every step of the way. The Season 3 IPT Grand Final took place in San Remo in May 2012, and Davide Biscardi was the big winner, scooping the title and €200,000 in first place prize money.

The opening event of Season 3 back in May 2011 saw history made, as the first ever two-time winner was crowned. Italian Marco Figuccia added the IPT Malta title to the one he won in Nova Gorica in Season 2. Domenico Cordi then booked the win in Campione, taking home CHF 898,870. The third stop had a hugely popular winner, as Italian poker legend Luca Pagano won the Main Event, collecting €210,000 in cash.

The final four stops saw wins for Danilo Donnini in Campione and Anton Karasinsky in Nova Gorica, and there was also a standout performance from Oleksii Kovalchuk, who won Main Events in both Nova Gorica and San Remo for combined earnings of €325,000. That record meant Kovalchuk also won the IPT Leader board and he will be sponsored by PokerStars.it for Season 4.
