Andreas Hagen from Norway has won the fifth season III title topping a 455-strong field at Gran Casino, Barcelona on Sunday October 2.
He lifted EUR90,310 for his victory in the EUR1,100 buy-in event after a heads up deal saw him take EUR80,310, his opponent Robin Appell accept EUR70,310. EUR10,000 was left to play for which Hagen duly scooped about 15 hands later.
The final hand saw Hagen bet 400,000 preflop with 7-7 and Appell move all in with K-6. The flop came A-5-2, the turn 5 and the river 7 giving the Norwegian a full house.
