The @European Poker Tour kicked off Season 11 at @Gran Casino de Barcelona with a record-breaking festival that brought together some of the biggest names in poker, as well as many newcomers and lucky online qualifiers. You can check out all of the winners on the EPT Barcelona and Estrellas Poker Tour results pages! Congratulations to the brand-new millionaires @Andre Lettau and @Samuel Phillips!

Check out the #PokerHand page on RankingHero for some great poker moments, most recently with Super High Roller winner @Olivier Busquet : A Must Have for Your Poker Hand Collection from EPT Barcelona.

Warm welcome to the 239 new members who joined the RankingHero community in the past week and good luck in the current Mission 6! Special thanks to @Olivier Thiry whose Top 10 list honors 10 men and women who make it possible for us to enjoy our favorite game through their work as tournament directors, floor managers, dealers and poker association activists.
