Barcelona was the very first European Poker Tour Event way back in 2004 and we've been coming back every season since. Here's a look back at the previous final tables:
It was a really short run for Team PokerStars Pro and the 2007 EPT Prague Main Event winner Arnaud Mattern who was busted by the Austrian player Thomas Muhlocker.
Muhlocker three-bet to 1,600 from the big blind and Mattern made the call on the button. The flop came and Muhlocker continued for 1,850. This was too little for Mattern and he raised to 4,500 and Muhlocker called.
The Austrian checked the turn and Mattern put in another 8,500. Muhlocker thought about it for a while and decided to call.
The dealer opened on the river and Mattern went all-in for 14,400. Muhlocker couldn't make up his mind and eventually had the clock called on him. After five minutes or so he finally called the bet. 'Good call', said Mattern and flipped showing the bluff. Muhlocker opened eliminating Mattern from the tournament.
On a flop of , Erik Cajelais raised a donk-bet from the big blind from 300 to 800 but his opponent the made the call. The turn and river were checked down and Cajelais' foe showed and the French-Canadian mucked.

Team PokerStars Pro and still World Series of Poker champion for another month, Pius Heinz, had to fire three bullets to dislodge Andrey Ivlev from a hand.
Heinz check-raised Ivlev's 550 c-bet up to 1,525 on a flop, and then went on to bet 2,850 and 6,425 on the turn and river. He was in the big blind and his Russian opponent called the first bet but tank-folded to the river bet.
The German is nearing getting back to his starting stack with 27,000.
It's over five years since Peter Jepsen won EPT Warsaw back in 2007 but the Dane is back here for the start of EPT season 9. He's just picked up a small pot when he fired out bets of 1,075 and 1,600 on the turn and river of a board against Luis Maria Rodriguez with the latter calling him down.
Andreas Vlachos from Greece opened the hand in the cutoff seat with a 750 raise and was called by the Dutch player Oscar Kemps in the big blind as well as the 2010 EPT Grand Final, Monte Carlo winner Nicolas Chouity under the gun and they went three-way into the flop.
The dealer opened which was checked by all three. Kemps bet 1,450 on the turn, Chouity made the call and Vlachos folded.
The two remaining players saw come on the river and Kemps lead again for 5,100 and Chouity went along with the call. Kemps flipped for a full house and Chouity mucked.
Juha Helppi has a tricky table draw with John Juanda and Andrew Lichtenberger both sat to his left, so he concentrated on taking chips from Borge Dypvik, who sits to his right.
The two were heads up to the turn of a board and Helppi called a 1,050 bet in position. Dypvik had seen enough and check-folded to a 2,000 bet on the river.
