What a awfull ending. Well it's good to see Eastgate cashing a big prize again. I think too much pressure was over his shoulders after winning the main event.
Congratulations to him because he won the most important EPT event. Lots of strong players and champions but he was able to win.

i think gustavon did very well, getting through a qualifier, maintaining a chip lead in late stages with all experienced players around and he knocked out most of the players on final table too.
Aaron Gustavson, good job! What will you do with this amount of money? But to be honest that I was really good tournament. I enjoy watching it and I guess nobody would not disagree with me. Again, good job, Gustavson!

Congratulations to Rui Milhomens, the best place ever achieve by a portuguese player in an international real tourney. €130K is something to remember! About the final hand between Aaron and Eastgate, nothing to say, both did what they had to do to try and win the tourney, and it went better to Aaron.
