A six and a half hour �10,200 sprint to a Spadie was the final event to crown a champion at EPT Barcelona as Jeremie Zouari claimed his second EPT title, defeating a field of 32 entries including fellow Frenchman Thomas Eychenne after a short heads-up match.
For the win, Zouari claimed �107,200 from the �310,400 prize pool and his second career Spadie, following up on his 2023 �3,000 Mystery Bounty title. Eychenne, meanwhile, topped $2,000,000 in career tournament earnings with his second-place finish, but he was again denied his first career major live tournament victory.
Place | Player | Country | Prize |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Jeremie Zouari | France | � 107,200 |
2 | Thomas Eychenne | France | � 69,800 |
3 | Alexander Ivarsson | Sweden | � 48,100 |
4 | Sam Greenwood | Canada | � 35,700 |
5 | Ren Lin | United States | � 27,900 |
6 | Akseli Hosia | Finland | � 21,700 |
Initially, it looked to be Alexander Ivarsson��s tournament for the taking as he first eliminated Biao Ding to burst the bubble, then felted Akseli Hosia in sixth place, Ren Lin in fifth, and Sam Greenwood in fourth. Greenwood tried a trick that worked for him earlier in the day when he doubled through Lin on the river, but it failed him this time.
Following that rush however, Ivarsson was on the wrong end of two huge pots versus Zouari that first doubled the Frenchman, and gave him the chip lead, then eliminated himself when he called off his stack with top pair versus Zouari��s aces.
That left Zouari with a nearly 3-to-1 chip lead to duel with Eychenne for the Spadie and the �107,200 first prize. The countrymen battled for several levels, with Eychenne clawing back to even at one point before eventually falling to Zouari.
