GERMAN police say they have arrested the suspected mastermind behind a spectacular armed raid on a high-stakes poker tournament.

The 28-year-old Lebanese man was seized on Sunday night, police said.

"According to the current state of our investigation, the suspect is thought to have been the organiser and brains behind the operation. He also drove the getaway car," Berlin police said in a statement.
