In 2023, Texapoker organized the first-ever "Championnat de France," the French term for "French Championship". The festival featured four main events and crowned four French champions: Alexis Nicolai in the €1,000 6-max, Giuseppe Zarbo in the €1,000 heads-up, Jonathan Therme in the €1,000 Pot Limit Omaha, and finally Leo Truche, who won the €1,000 8-max.
Truche triumphed over a field of 597 entrants, winning €88,000 and a WPT World Championship Package worth $12,000.

: 100/200, 200 ante
A player in middle position opened to 600, and he was called by Patrick Faraut in the hijack and by the cutoff.
The dealer fanned a flop of K♥8♠10♣ and the middle position player continued for 1,100. Faraut was the only one to call.
On the J♥ turn, Faraut went into the tank after his opponent fired a second barrel of 3,600. He eventually made the call to find the A♦ river.
The middle position player bet 10,000 and Faraut seemed to have no choice but to fold K♦10♥ for two pair face up.

Moments after he arrived at the table, Michel Leibgorin in the small blind raised to 600 and the big blind called.
Leibgorin continued for 1,000 on the 7♠4♥8♠ flop, then fired a second barrel of 1,700 on the 3♦ turn. The big blind called both times.
After the 8♣ river landed on the felt, Leibgorin decided to check. The big blind took this opportunity to throw five yellow chips worth 1,000 each in front of him. This bet made Leibgorin.

The under the gun player raised to 1,200, then Leo Truche to his left, Olivier Yvora in middle position, Laurent Michot in the cutoff, Laurent Navarro on the button and Loic Durand in the small blind called.
On a flop of 9♠6♥3♠, everybody checked to Michot who bet 3,000. Navarro, Durand and Yvora were the only ones to call.
Michot sized up to 8,000 on the 4♦ turn. He was called twice as the Navarro folded.
The three remaining players checked the 5♠ river, so they all revealed their cards. Durand turned over Q♠Q♦ and made Yvora muck his cards. But Michot showed 6♠6♦ for a set and won the pot.
