With a field of 306 players this year's LAPT Punta del Este event generated a prize pool of $1,042,260.

Forty-eight players made the money with Barbero taking home $279,330 for first.

The final table was made up of three Argentinean players, two Brazilians, one Colombian and one local player from Uruguay.

The only player from outside South America to reach the final table was French PokerStars qualifier Nicolas Cardyn, who finished second for $161,550.

The tournament was held at the Mantra Casino & Resort at Punta del Este.

Barbero, who once represented the Argentinean national team in Magic: The Gathering tournaments, also became only the second Latin American player to win an event on the LAPT circuit.

Previously, he finished ninth at the LAPT season 2 event in Mar del Plata and has six cashes at the World Series of Poker.
