Elky Enters
Team PokerStars Pro Bertrand 'ElkY' Grospellier was just spotted entering the poker room and with that the tournament just got a whole lot tougher. ElkY, who considers South-Korea his second home after having lived here for many years as a professional Starcraft player, plays this event every year but he's still chasing down a result in South-Korea.
Grospellier has been one of the most successful tournament pros in the world since his breakthrough win at the 2008 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure. Grospellier won the Main Event for $2,000,000 and added another $1.4 million to his bankrol after winning the WPT Festa a Lago in October of that year.
The French pro completed the Triple Crown in 2011 when he won his first WSOP bracelet in the $10,000 Seven Card Stud event for $331,639. In total Grospellier has $10.8 million in live tournament earnings, which puts him atop the French all-time money list and 25th worldwide.
