Frederick Brink Jensen Wins Unibet Open Copenhagen 2014

The Unibet Open returned to Copenhagen last week with a new buy in of €1000+100 and a new 30,000 chip starting stack which saw the event sell out well in advance of Day 1a.

406 players entered the 3 day main event but only one could walk away with the title of Champion and a winners cheque for just shy of €84,000.

That player, was Frederick Brink Jensen from Copenhagen, Denmark. Frederick was the final tables star player, with over $2m in live cashes, which include a 2nd place finish for over $1m in the Aussie Millions 2010 Main Event but more notably a win in the EPT Main Event in Madrid in 2012 for just under €500k. He showed his class throughout and in an amazing final hand that was as much of a see-saw hand that anyone could have possibly imagined he was crowned the Unibet Open Copenhagen 2014 Winner.

He held QJo vs the A7o of Emil Hegedus, the board ran out AQJ rainbow to give Frederick the bottom 2 pair, and Emil the top pair with his Ace. The money went in on the flop and the turn card shocked the rail, a 7!! The pendulum had swang back into Emil's favour and the crowd seemed shocked! However the Poker Gods in Denmark were on their chosen ones side and the Queen on the river filled Fredericks full house and ensured a cheer from an ecstatic rail. The event was a massive success and Unibet agin excelled in giving their poker players some amazing tournaments, fantastic parties and an event that will live long in the memory of every person involved. Congratulations to Frederick Brink Jensen and to Unibet, roll on Talinn!

Last years event sold out in record time so this year Unibet have increased the number of entrants from 300-400, and guess what? We have sold out again!! Amazing work by everyone involved and here's to a great event with lots of fun. If you cant make it over or would like to watch how the event plays out, you can view it on the Unibet Open website, youtube or just stay here and watch it on this lovely embedded player that I have for you. www.unibetopen.com

Unibet Poker - New Software and My 1st Review.

Unibet Poker, home of the qualifiers to the awesome Unibet Open have recently re-invigorated their online poker room by leaving their old network behind and going it alone by creating their own software (a bold move) and so far I am impressed.

The poker room features everything you would normally see on a poker client, from cash games, fast poker, to SnG's and Multi Table Tournaments. But the feel of the site is different to what players are used to.

The site is more beginner friendly, in fact you can create multiple alias' in order to hide from the data miners and the pro's who frequent most of the online sites these days. This IMO is a fantastic idea and one that will help the amateur players feel more inclined to play here, which is great for the poker industry as a whole.

I've been playing some 2c/4c cash games after receiving a €10 voucher and so far I'm just breaking even, but the money at stake here is not what I'm interested in, its the fun I'm having at the tables, changing my alias, playing different styles and enjoying playing instead of grinding like a chump.

Why don't you take a look yourself and give it a go?
