Team USA have won the fourth annual World Cup of Poker (WCP).
Greg Raymer, Tyler Netter, John Kenlan, Shaun Deeb and Randy Principe made up the winning team that defeated Canada, Iceland and Romania in the final.
USA took home the first prize of $100,000, Romania got $60,000 for coming second and Iceland came third winning $40,000.
It is the first time the USA have won the trophy, with last year's tournament being won by Poland and the previous two being won by Costa Rica.
According to the official tournament press release, Team USA "represented their country with a combination of aggressive play and national pride."
The WCP was established in 2004 and consists of 46 five-man teams from 39 different countries.
Countries are split in to eight regional groups where teams compete against one another in round robin no-limit Texas Hold 'Em tournaments.
Barcelona hosts the final every year.
