French Money list: Elky, Benyamine and Saout in the top
With the increasing number of poker tournaments held in different cities around the world, it becomes increasingly difficult to rank players based on their results in tournaments. In the ranking of players having the biggest gains, the result changes day to day. Currently, the American Eric Seidel scored the highest ranking in the Money List with $ 16.8 million on his account. As for French players, the famous world champion Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier holder of a gain of 8.43 million remains on the French top ranking. His victories in the High Roller tournament of the European Poker Tour Madrid (EPT) and his success at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) that enabled him to win the Triple Crown are among the best results that allowed him to be in this position. Note that Elky is placed at the 19 position of the World Money List.
With his $ 6,155,573 earnings won with his exploits at the WSOP 2008 and the Aussie Millions, David Benyamine is in the second position of the French money list. Despite his bad luck in recent poker tournaments for some time, Antoine Saout is still in the third place of French best gains by having won $ 3,863,435. At the fourth position of the French Money List is Fabrice Soulier who actually have a total gain of $ 3,589,802. His triumph at the WSOP 2011 HORSE event and his third place in the second stage of the Epic Poker League embellished greatly his wallet. As for the sponsor of Moroccan poker, Roger Hairabedian, his talent and his performance let him gather until now a superb earnings of $ 2,563,599. He therefore holds the 5th position.
