Another Title for Arturas Dauksevic
Arturas Dauksevic has been making a name for himself in Vilnius. He won two titles in international events in Vilnius in 2022 before shipping the inaugural Vilnius Ace Breaker €1,100 High Roller in early 2023.
He also earned a handful of podium finishes in other events during the past two years, however, Sunday added a bit of icing on the cake as he won his fourth international title in Vilnius after defeating the formidable countrymate Kestutis Jungevicius heads-up to win the €350 Warm-Up Progressive Bounty. Both players collected the €7,290 top prize with Dauksevic coming away with much more thanks to the huge bounty prizes at the end of the event.
The event itself provided approximately €5,000 in extra value for the 143 players that entered thanks to the generous €50,000 guarantee slapped onto this event.
