Jannick Wrang Wins EPT Campione!
Level 32
: 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante
Jannick Wrang has become the third consecutive Danish European Poker Tour champion after besting a star-studded final table at the EPT Campione Main Event. Wrang, who spent just $309 to win his seat to this main event, takes home a massive first place prize of €640,000.
His victory was made all the more sweeter by the fact he defeated one of the best, if not the best, heads-up tournament poker player in the world in the shape of Olivier "livb12" Busquet after a 75-minute heads-up battle at the end of a 13 hour final table. The final hand saw Busquet open to 300,000, Wrang three-bet all in covering his opponent by a 3:1 margin and Busquet made the call.
Busquet: 
Wrang: 
The flop came down 
and it looked like it was going to be a double up for Busquet but the turn and river were the 
and the 
respectively to gift Wrang a tournament winning flush and Busquet was resigned to the runner-up prize of €430,000.
The EPT next stops at Berlin on April 16 and the PokerNews Live Reporting team will be there. We sincerely hope you will be there with us.

Back and Forth...
Level 31
: 60,000/120,000, 10,000 ante
As the commentary team have stated, the chips have swung forward and backwards but the stacks at the same relative level as when they began.
One problem is that the casino has to close by 5am (it's 3.15am at the moment) so we could be back tomorrow at this rate...
Back to Wrang

flop. Olivier Busquet led out for 125,000 and Wrang made the call to see a on the turn. Busquet bet 250,000 and again Wrang made the call.
The
