The 2025 Coolbet Open is officially underway, and we already have our first champion. For the 8th time, players from across the Nordics and far beyond have descended on Tallinn, turning Chesterfield Poker Club and the Nordic Hotel Forum into a week-long playground of poker, laughter, and unforgettable nights.
The opening trophy belongs to Mikko Samuli Harmaa, who took down the 8-Max Pot Limit Omaha. The event drew 95 entries, building a &euro;18.050 prize pool, and as you might expect, the final table was stacked with Finnish firepower; four of the top five finishers repping the blue-and-white flag.

Day 1 ended last night with the bubble bursting, meaning everyone left has already locked up &euro;300. In the Mystery Bounty format, the envelopes stay sealed until you&rsquo;re in the money, so today&rsquo;s eliminations are when the real fireworks begin.
Up top is &euro;5.500 for the winner, but the bounties are the wild card. The biggest prize envelopes are still lurking, and every knockout today sends a player straight to the desk to see what fortune holds. Expect drama, expect suspense, expect chaos.

<h1 dir="ltr">Today&rsquo;s schedule: Poker in Full Swing</h1>
Today is when the 2025 Coolbet Open truly shifts into high gear.
At 12:00, Main Event Day 1A kicks off, bringing with it the prestige, pressure, and prize pool that every player in Tallinn will be chasing. Nine levels of play will decide who bags chips for Day 2, and with unlimited re-entry on offer, expect a packed room and some massive pots.
But that&rsquo;s just the start. The rest of the schedule offers something for everyone:
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" role="presentation">15:00 &mdash; Daily Single Re-entry </li>
<li dir="ltr" role="presentation">16:00 &mdash; PLO Hi-Lo [8-max] </li>
