The final table was formed with Dan Smith emerging as a formidable chip leader. However, it was Argentinian pro Nacho Barbero who stole the spotlight, knocking out every one of his six final table opponents to secure the victory.
Barbero dismantled his opponents, one by one, with calculated precision. Not even the formidable trio of Dan Dvoress, Jan-Peter Jachtmann, and Dan Smith could stem the tide of Barbero’s dominance. Finally, all the remaining three players got their chips in an enormous pot.
Barbero: 8s 8c 7c 3s
Dvoress: Qc Qh 9s 4c
Jachtmann: 8s 8c 7c 3s
The board 6c 3d Jh 7h Ac was all about Barbero again. Adding two more bounties to his stack, Barbero’s dominance culminated with the trophy finding its place on his already illustrious shelf.
