Guilherme Kleist Wins Spin & Go Championship at EPT Barcelona 2025

Guilherme Kleist won the Spin & Go Championship Live at PokerStars EPT Barcelona 2025. The second edition of the event featured three-handed Sit & Gos with randomized prize pools, a format that has been popular online for over a decade. Kleist defeated Joao Nascimento heads-up at the final table, which also featured Krystian Lisowski, to claim the trophy.

Kleist's victory included €75,000 in prize money and an additional €5,500 in bonus Spinner prizes. Additionally, he secured a seat at the next Spin & Go Championship at EPT Paris in 2026. The tournament played out over six three-handed matches per round, ultimately setting the stage for an exciting final showdown on Day Two.

Eighty-one online qualifiers made the trip to Casino Barcelona for the event. PokerStars ambassador Jason Koon commented on the format, suggesting it could bridge online and live poker. Koon noted, “There are a lot of people who may not feel comfortable jumping straight into a full live tournament. But they’ve played tens of thousands of Spins online. Bringing that same game live could get them to show up. And because Spins are really fast, anybody can come in and run deep.” The Spin & Go Championship Live will next appear at EPT Paris in February 2026.
