The PokerStars.Com European Poker Tour London has been won by Joseph Mouawad from Lebanon, who beat 391 others to pick up the £611,520 first prize at the Grosvenor Victoria Casino. Mouawad, who qualified online with the sponsor, defeated Florian Langmann from Germany heads up, hitting first a pair of queens, then a third queen to take down the prestigious title.
The day began with eight players:
First to be eliminated was Cox, who got his short stack in ahead with K-7 against Langmann with K-3, but Langmann found a 3 on the board to take the hand. Cox received £57,075.
Next out was Paul Mendes whose K-10 ran into Lellouche's A-K and didn't improve. He received £77,459.
Lellouche was next to hit the rail when Mouawad called his all in from behind with J-2 and made two pair. He picked up £97,843 for his sixth place finish.
Haugen exited in fifth when he called an all in from Langmann with A-J. The German's Q-10 improved on the flop and Swede was out, picking up £124,342.
New Zealander Egan busted in fourth when he ran K-J in Langmann's aces. He won £152,880.
Shortly afterwards, Baran hit the rail when his pocket fours clashed with Langmann's K-7, which picked up a king on the flop. He won £203,840.
Mouawad and Langmann were virtually even in chips as heads-up play commenced, but the Lebanese edged ahead, and an hour into their final push for the title, all of the chips went in the middle on a flop of Q-9-6 after Mouawad went all in over the top of Langmann's bet and was called. The German showed 9-8 while the Lebanese showed Q-3, hit another queen, and walked off with the £611,520 first prize, while Langmann had to settle for £346,528.
