After a final table that was as quick as it was exciting, Sergio Marti Aguilar was crowned GSOP Live: Greece Champion at the Porto Carras Grand Resort Saturday.

The Spaniard, who took the chip lead on Day 2 of the event, held on to bring the second biggest stack into the final nine and outclassed the field on the way to earning the €78,447 top prize.

Although he managed to get all the way to the final two, Mad Bulgarian Stefan Genchev, the massive leader when things kicked off at 2 p.m. local time Saturday, could not turn his maniacal style into a title, seeing his stack go up and down all day until he finally fell heads-up to Aguilar shoving king-queen into Aguilar’s big slick.

The ace-king held and suddenly what started with a GSOP Live record 345 players just a few short days ago was suddenly down to just one.

To no one’s surprise, Aguilar told the BLUFF Live! video crew he’s planning on playing the rest of the GSOP Live series, staring with the Prague Main Event coming up in December.
