It usually attracts small, but strong, fields, and this time at EPT Barcelona it was no different. A total of 18 entries showed up at Casino Barcelona to create a prize pool of €87,300. Eventually, David Dongwoo Ko took home the title, his first-ever PokerStars trophy, and €37,550 for his efforts.</p> <p>He defeated Triple Crown winner Mike Watson heads up well into the Mediterranean night, with the tournament being closed out at 1:30 a.m. local time. Watson was awarded a consolation prize of €23,550, while mixed games wizard Benny Glaser (3rd - €15,700) and poker veteran Vladimir Troyanovskiy (4th - €10,500) also cashed in the event.</p>
