Sylvain Loosli Eliminated In Fourth Place ($2,792,533)
Nov 05, '13
After hours of six-handed play, it took less than a dozen hands to get down to the final three players.
Sylvain Loosli, a 26-year-old poker pro from Toulon, France, was a short-stacked ninja for much of the final table. Unfortunately for him, he made his final push holding Q7 and was caught by Ryan Reiss and his A10.
The board fell K989A and the Frenchman was eliminated in fourth place, earning a life-changing sum of $2,792,533.
It was only the third-ever cash for Loosli, who recently final tabled an event in Dublin for a modest $80,966.
Loosli, who came into the final table as the sixth largest stack, was designated as an 11-2 underdog by Caesars Entertainment. His elimination guaranteed that an American would win this year’s WSOP main event.
