A familiar face arrived at Casino Barcelona, eager to challenge some of the world’s top poker players at the PokerStars European Poker Tour stop in Barcelona.
Soccer legend Gerard Piqué took his seat in a €20,000 buy-in tournament, joining a star-studded field that included Poker Hall of Famer Erik Seidel, triple crown winner Mike Watson, and 2024 WSOP Main Event third-place finisher Niklas Astedt.
Piqué is no stranger to the felt, having played at the World Series of Poker and other EPTs. However, the World Cup winner fell below his usual high standards this time around.

Petro Vyshynskyy opened to 300 from middle position and Michael De Jonge three-bet to 1,100 from the small blind. Vyshynskyy made the call.
The flop came 10♣8♣4♦ and De Jonge fired an 800 continuation-bet that Vyshynskyy called.
De Jonge bet again for 3,600 on the 9♠ turn and once again received a call from Vyshynskyy.
Both players checked the Q♥ river. De Jonge made top pair with K♦Q♦, but Vyshynskyy had the best hand with 7♥6♥ for a ten-high straight to take the pot.
