Francisco Benitez Wins Back-to-Back Titles at EPT Barcelona
Francisco Benitez of Uruguay made a stunning impression at the PokerStars EPT Barcelona, securing back-to-back victories in high-stakes events. His impressive run began with a win in the €10k Mystery Bounty event, where he earned €114,080 and an additional €110,000 in bounties.
Benitez then turned his attention to the €25k No Limit title, which boasted a prizepool of €1,200,500. He navigated through a competitive field that included notable players like Tim Adams, Erik Seidel, Artur Martirosian, and Paul Phua. The final table saw seven players sharing the prizepool, with each player guaranteed at least €63,030.
In a dramatic heads-up showdown, Benitez faced off against his friend Ramiro Petrone. The two decided to do a deal, with Benitez taking home €341,565 and Petrone receiving €306,705. This victory marked Benitez's second consecutive win at the EPT Barcelona, solidifying his status as a formidable player in the high-stakes poker world.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
