First, check out what we’re playing today:
01 JUNE 2025, 08:25 UTC+01:00
Yesterday, four tournaments were played:
$ZTO$ ART Saturday Night BANANA Cup
$ZTO$ ART Main Event – Day 1F (played till 12,5% min cash €400)
$ZTO$ ART Special 1-DAY Pot Limit Omaha Master
$ZTO$ ART Main Event – Day 1E (played till 12,5% min cash €400)
01 JUNE 2025, 09:31 UTC+01:00
Before we start describing today’s competition, here are the results of yesterday’s.
We’re starting with the winner of the biggest tournament so far at this festival — the $ZTO$ ART Special 1-DAY Pot Limit Omaha Master — and that title goes to Maciej Ludwik Kondraszuk. Thanks to a deal made at five players left, he secured the highest payout, even more than what would have been awarded for second place on the standard payout structure.
Great job — once again, smart deal-making proves to be a valuable skill!

In the always popular Saturday Banana Cup, the winner was a player from Germany — JACKY. This time, the remaining four players made a deal to split the remaining prize pool, with each securing a payout not far off from the original second-place prize.
As we can see, Saturday was definitely a day of deals.
01 JUNE 2025, 11:44 UTC+01:00
We’d also like to remind you of the players who advanced with the biggest stacks to today’s Day 2 of the Main Event.
From Day 1D, 27 players moved on, and here is the top 10 who will face off against the rest of the field today at 17:00.
01 JUNE 2025, 12:22 UTC+01:00
From Saturday’s Day 1E and 1F flights of the $ZTO$ ART Main Event with a guaranteed prize pool of €500,000, 37 and 34 players advanced, respectively.
Among the Polish players, the biggest stack so far belongs to Konrad Piotr Kolpa, who bagged just under 2 million chips — congratulations.
The only player who has surpassed the 2 million mark at this point is Marc Podschun.
What do you think — will the winner come from the early chip leaders, or maybe from someone currently at the bottom of the standings? We’ll find out today and tomorrow.
01 JUNE 2025, 13:01 UTC+01:00
Registration for Day 1G of the $ZTO$ ART Main Event is coming to an end. All players who advance will get a solid warm-up before the key showdowns on Day 2.
Will we see one of the chip leaders or even the future champion emerge from this turbo-structured flight? If someone started playing today at 11:00 and makes it to the final day, they’ll be facing nearly nonstop poker for many hours — so being well-prepared for these crucial moments on the road is essential.
Keep that in mind!

From here, we’d like to invite you to today’s live coverage on our YouTube channel SZTOSCLUB.
We’ll be streaming Day 2 of the $ZTO$ ART Main Event starting at 8:00 PM and continuing into the late night hours. Then on Monday, the final day kicks off at 2:30 PM.
You don’t want to miss it!

The last two chances to qualify for Day 2 of the $ZTO$ ART Main Event are now entering their most crucial phase. In Day 1G, which started today at 11:00, the field is playing down to the top 35 players who will move on, with the blinds increasing even faster after the late registration period. And then there’s the so-called last resort for the most determined players—or those who enjoy this kind of high-variance format—the $ZTO$ ART Main Event DAY 1 FLIP and GO. In this structure, 8 players go all-in on the very first hand, and the winner secures a spot in Day 2.
Sometimes, a single lucky hand can lead to an unforgettable story if that player goes deep later the same day.

15 minutes remain until the start of Day 2 of the $ZTO$ ART Main Event – some players have been waiting since Wednesday to return to the battle, while others were just at the tables moments ago. Players took advantage of the Flip and Go tournament option until the very end – the fighting spirit is strong in them, as Yoda from Star Wars might say if he ever made a trip to Rozvadov.
Will these details impact the final results? We’ll find out soon. May the best player win.
