Thank you, but problem is that i have other similiar events with Result so i need to specify exactly with this sintax.

Is this what you mean? Or can you provide examples of other events that you don't want to match?

To be transormed in something like this (i am really new with rex sintax)

| rex field=_raw "\sPOS\sStart\sCardType\:\s(?<CardType>\w+)\,\sTransactionType\:\s(?<TxType>\w+)\,\s"
