The next Winamax Team pro in the field is Spain's Alejandro Romero, who made a deep run recently in the EPT Monte Carlo €5,300 Main Event in which he finished ninth for a payday of €69,990.
Romero had already chipped up and was then involved in a heads-up pot with a late entry as they headed to the 
turn. Out of the big blind, the Spaniard bet 4,000 into a pot of 9,000 and his opponent from under the gun folded.
