Gerard Piquè Comes in 2nd at EPT Barcelona Event!
Sarah Herring gives August 27th update from Casino Barcelona.
We crowned four new champions yesterday and we will cover them all shortly.
-Most eyes, and certainly all cell phones yesterday were pointed very clearly at FC Barcelona stars Gerard Pique and Arturo Vidal in the first ever single day €25k high roller. Both stars went deep in the event. Arturo Vidal finished in 5th place and Piqué came runner-up. Ultimately it was Juan Pardo who topped a field of 70 entries to take home the top prize of nearly €500k.
The biggest winner yesterday without question was Sergi Reichack. He took the trophy home for Spain and will take home €1.8 million.
