Finally, a Spanish EPT Champ: 20-Year-Old Adrian Mateos Wins Grand Final Main Event

The European Poker Tour found its first Spanish winner on Friday night, with 20-year-old Adrian Mateos walking away with the largest score of his poker career and second major poker title. It may have taken until the very end of Season 11 for a Spaniard to win, but Mateos did it, and he now holds two legs of poker's Triple Crown.
