Martin Schleich Victorious - 2011 EPT Barcelona
Posted by: pokercannon.net
Many expected Eugene Katchalov to win in style and grab the triple crown, but that was not to be after a third place finish. Eugene Katchalov started in 8th on the final table, increased his chip size, but eventually was knocked out for a cool €315.000
Martin Schleich and Dragan Kostic kept the heat on each other, but one hand was all that it took. They both got their chips in with Kostic's A 7 off suit to go heads up with Schleich's A 9 off suit. The board held and Kostic went out in 2nd.
