The third day of the EPT Barcelona main event is over and there are now only 24 players left. The first two days of the tournament were dominated by 2 French poker players, Guillaume Darcourt and Xavier Caruggi, but Day 3 was all about 2 Spanish poker players, Tomeu Gomilla and Raul Mestre, and they will return to the tables today with the biggest stacks.
Apart from Team PokerStars Pros Eugene Katchalov and Matthias De Meulder there aren't many known players left in the tournament, but this doesn't necessary mean that the rest of the tournament will be boring to follow. A first place prize of €850,000 is up for grabs and it comes along with a trophy (picture) and the honor to have won Spain's biggest poker tournament ever.
