Bacelona hosted the next leg of the FTP Poker Series. Pasquale De Simone won the event, scoring his first PTPR Points of the year - De Simone won the La Note de Poker event in Italy in January of 2008. Santiago Nadal and Adrien Garrigues both scored for the second this year.

Carlos da Silva (pictured) won ended the France Poker Tour Final events with a win in the Masters event. Although they failed to scored PTPR Points, Marvin Rettenmaier (6th) and Lucien Cohen (8th) were still able to post a Top 10 result.
