Seville… what a phenomenal week. Between the scenic citrus trees and the vibrant local tunes, this has been an absolute standout trip that has perfectly established the momentum for our future stops. Casino Admiral served as an outstanding venue for the Main Event of PartyPoker Seville, while the action at the felt remained high-voltage from the first deal to the final hand.
Over the course of the week, the festival drew 1,715 total entries, building €364,840 in aggregate prize pools, with PartyPoker distributing more than 250 online seats valued above €75,000.
Now, let’s examine the dramatic conclusion of Day 6.

Several high-profile players entered the fray, such as PartyPoker Team members Natalie Bromley, Glenn Brown, and Dani Garcia. A special mention goes to Alvaro Martinez for snagging the top €2,000 bounty.
Ultimately, PartyPoker Team’s own Dani Garcia dominated the field, securing the trophy along with €2,880 in standard winnings and an additional €1,550 in collected bounties.
At 4pm, the NLH High Roller 7-Max took center stage. With 28 participants, the total prize money climbed to €25,200.

When the dust settled, Antonio Reger Muñoz emerged victorious, claiming the €11,100 top prize and the silverware.
Then it was time for the headline event.
At 5pm, 13 survivors returned for the Final Day of the €500 Main Event. This flagship tournament reached 383 entries to create a massive €170,435 prize pool.
