Congratulations to Titan Poker team member, Marvin Rettenmaier from Germany, who made it to 3rd place at the Partouche Poker Million in Spain.
At the beautiful Casino Grand Madrid, Marvin battled a tough field of players who all wanted a piece of the one million Euros prize pool.
Marvin gave a wonderful performance but busted out when he went all-in with 99 against 66 pre-flop. The flop came out K36 and the turn and river produced no miracles for him.
Marvin took home 31,000 Euros and a lot of prestige.

The first level just finished.
Sorel Mizzi and Joël Benzinou are seated at the same table with four other French players – not surprising since Barcelona is famous as a “French poker place” because of the large numbers of French representatives. Sometimes we see even more French players than Spanish players at the big tournaments here in Barcelona.
