WPT Spainish Championship Winner Crowned

Another one of my heroes has fallen. Unforunatley, Gus Hansen could not hold his commanding lead with only one day of play to go. Hansen finished fifth overall taking home just over $140,000 not bad for a few days work.

The champion at this WPT event was amatuer player Markus Lehmann who cashed in at over $780,000. Lehmann was the second short stack going into the final table, playing his cards strategically eventually payed off as he picked off his fellow international oppoents one by one.
And an international field it was at the final table with repersentation from six countries including, Russia, Sweden, Korea, France, Austria, and Denmark. A true World Poker Tour Event.
