Urbanovich Officially the Last to Enter the EPT Malta Main Event

So far the EPT Malta has belonged to 19-year-old Polish player Dzmitry Urbanovich, who took down the €25,000 High Roller last week for €572,300, and then followed that up with two side event titles.
Here's how the PokerStars crew describes Urbanovich's feat:
"After official EPT photographer Neil Stoddart had finished taking Dzmitry Urbanovich’s second winner pic of the festival, the 19-year-old Pole said: 'See you soon!' Well 'soon' has turned out to be the very next day as Urbanovich has just beaten Jack Salter heads-up to win today’s €5k NL Turbo unlimited rebuy for €110,000. This is now the third EPT trophy that Urbanovich has picked up at the EPT Malta Poker Festival and it’s still only Day 1b!
"Urbanovich started his incredible performance by defeating some of the best players in the world in the special €25k High Roller for €572,300. A relatively early finish in that last on Friday meant he had to time to enter the €500 Midnight Turbo – he made the final. Yesterday he won the €1k NL Deepstack Turbo Big Ante for €35,200 and just now he banked another €110,000 for winning the €5k NL Turbo. You might think it was about time Urbanovich thought about entering the Main Event – but no, he’s going to play the €2k NL Turbo first – that started a couple of hours ago and he was impatient to get in to it."
Urbanovich, who has earned more money playing poker in Malta than anyone else in history (at least for now), officially became the last player to register the EPT Malta Main Event. What a story it'd be if he could somehow capture his fourth title in this event!
