The three finalists reached an agreement, bringing the total prize pool to \u20ac352,726.<\/figcaption><\/figure><h4 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #003366;\"><strong><br \/>Last week, the Barcelona casino hosted the CNP Winamax Series, with the \u20ac550 buy-in Main Event being the final event to conclude. The Main Event attracted 813 entries, a 23% increase over 2025 attendance. Catalan player David Gomez left all his competitors in the dust.<\/strong><\/span><\/h4><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The large number of participants created\u00a0<strong>\u20ac352,726<\/strong>\u00a0The total prize pool is shared by the top 87 players. The champion was originally entitled to \u20ac60,000, but an agreement was reached when only three players remained, changing the prize distribution.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Gomez bought in three times in the CNP Winamax Main Event. His third attempt to build a chip stack came just before the late entry deadline. Buying in so late meant he initially only had 15 big blinds at his disposal, but he used them wisely, rolling them into the title and...\u00a0<strong>\u20ac54,433<\/strong>\u00a0The bonus.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The eventual champion finished in fourth place on the penultimate day and entered the final table as the chip leader. Gomez used his massive chip stack with deadly precision, specifically targeting the medium-stacked players who were at the greatest risk of loss.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">With only three players remaining, they reached an agreement to reserve \u20ac13,000 and the trophy for the eventual champion. Gomez secured \u20ac41,433, Marius Oprea received \u20ac38,252, and Pepe Naranjo was guaranteed \u20ac37,313.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Naranjo was the first player eliminated after the deal was reached. He went all-in with pocket sixes against Oprea&#039;s pocket tenes. The six on the flop seemed to give Naranjo the hand, but the ten on the turn reversed the advantage back to Oprea. A meaningless river card sent the CNP Winamax Barcelona Main Event into heads-up play.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In the final hand, both heads-up players checked on a QT-6 flop. The turn brought a 4, giving Oprea the lead to bet. Gomez raised, and Oprea went all-in. Gomez called after confirming his all-in bet. Oprea flopped Q-8, but Gomez made two pair on the turn with his Q-4. The river didn&#039;t change anything, and Gomez became the 2026 CNP Winamax Barcelona Main Event champion.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">After his victory, Gomez said, &quot;I&#039;m an online Expresso player and rarely participate in live tournaments. I did last year, but it didn&#039;t feel very good. So this year, I didn&#039;t have high expectations. Reaching such a deep round and seeing myself at the final table was already incredible, and winning the championship left me speechless.&quot;<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The next stop on the CNP Winamax Tour will be Murcia in late June, followed by Alicante in September, and then the Grand Final in Madrid in mid-November.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Meanwhile, the Barcelona casino is preparing to host the 2026 888poker LIVE Barcelona Series.
