Sebastian Rutenberg 
wins European Poker Tour in Barcelona. With impressive performance at the final table, he dominated the game and managed to secure his first EPT title.
Sebastian wins the honorary title.
The rising star of Germany's PokerStars.de has taken control of the action at the Casino Barcelona with his outstanding form. The first thing he said after the tournament was: "I'm incredibly lucky." But luck alone would not have allowed such a victory to be won. Sebastian showed the highest level of poker.
He has proven that he is great at handling critical situations at the table. There was a moment when Rutenberg lost a lot of chips and was left with a short stack. In this situation, he pulled himself together and managed to rise again in order, in the end, to win the tournament. After winning a Stud Poker bracelet at the WSOP this year, Sebastian has proven his skills now in No Limit Hold'em.
Short "Heads-up" duel.
In a short heads-up game that lasted only 3 hands, Sebastian defeated the Irishman Fintan Gavin. With only two left at the table, the German had an overwhelming chip advantage. So the victory was only a matter of time. Gavin put all his chips on the line with only 4h-7c. Sebastian responded with Kc-9c. Ac-7h-2h-Kh-9d came on the table, which brought the lucky Sebastian two winning pair.
