ElkY Gets His First WSOP Bracelet

Bertrand ‘ElkY’ Grospellier took down the $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship at this year's WSOP, completing a WSOP/EPT/WPT triple crown and earning $331,639.

As many of you may know, he started his career in South Korea as a professional video gamer, then turned to online poker as a natural progression.  He spent some of his early poker years playing in Seoul, according to a friend of his I spoke with a couple years ago at 7-Luck.
