The Italian Poker Tour Grand wrapped up its seventh season in Saint Vincent this week, with a Grand Final event won by Hungarian Balazs Somodi. Somodi topped a field of 308 players to earn a primary prize of €70,000 from a combined prize pool of €298,760.
Somodi, who has earned greater than $250,000 on the poker table during the last ten years, despite being a qualified chess player by day, overcame Romanian Tudor Purice heads-up. Purice collected €40,000 as runner-up.
