Bertrand Grospellier is a new name to most people, and frankly to me, but this player is French was able to win the prestigious tournament in 2008 beating off competition from PCA over 1000 contestants! A good test of this young boy who was only 26 years, still has a whole life ahead to win more tournaments .. Good luck!
The Team PokerStars Pro Bertrand "Elky" Grospellier won the fifth edition of the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure (PCA) and a record first prize of $ 2 million after beating 1,135 opponents in what was the TV's largest tournament outside the World Series of Poker (WSOP).
The 26-year old French during the press conference, told reporters that the microphones of the whole trip was characterized by a series of exciting experiences, and now returns to his homeland as the ACC Champion in 2008. Elky for this tournament was definitely the most difficult of his life, because opponents were difficult and had to challenge many Americans online qualifiers who played really well. In fact, were 650 players who have won their place in the PCA through PokerStars satellites, also included seven of the finalists who braved Elky.
