EPT Campione: The victory for Jannick Wrang
The main event of the European Poker Tour Campione (EPT) ended with the victory of Jannick Wrang. The final table began on Saturday around 2:00 pm and lasted about 13 hours. It is important to mention that the structure of the tournament was simply outstanding, allowing players to highlight the quality of their games. Thus, during the final table, it took over an hour before the first eliminated player stands. And it was the Swede Robin Ylitalo. Stefano Puccilli and Mario Nagel followed him a few hours later. The five remaining players battled for five hours before the Belgian Koen De Visscher end up leaving the game. And spectators assisted to three other hours battle before Balazs Botond was eliminated.
The French public hoped to see a victory by Fabrice Soulier, who also wanted to win the title. Unfortunately, he could not go further and settled for the bronze placed with a reward of 240,000. The final duel was played between Olivier Busquet and Wrang. Holder of the highest number of tokens at the start of the meeting, the Dane largely dominated the game. His talents as a professional in no-limit hold'em was not enough for him because he was destabilized by the Danish specialized in online poker sit'n'go tournaments. The final heads'up was therefore concluded by the victory of Wrang who pocketed at this event the sum of 640,000 and a Shamballa jewel worth 10,000. Busquet went home with the second prize of 430,000.
