It is a form of consecration for Romain Lewis.
The 26-year-old Bordeaux boy became, on the night of Tuesday to Wednesday, world champion of poker in Las Vegas in the United States.
Pro player of Team Winamax, the most successful team in Europe, he won in front of 306 players in Event 76 of the 52nd World Poker Championships (88 tournaments in total this year played from September to November).
After three lucrative but frustrating podiums in 2018 at the WSOP (World Series Of Poker), Romain Lewis won a beefy Super Turbo (20 minutes playing time with very fast hands) at $ 10,000 entry.
The Bordelais pocketed 463,885 dollars (410,171 euros), plus eight elimination bonuses worth 3,000 dollars (2,652 euros) each.
He especially obtains his first WSOP gold bracelet, the 29th in the history of French poker.

“It’s nice!
This time it did not escape me.
Each time, I was happy with my results… but each time, I also told myself that it was really hard to win a bracelet in fact.
There, it's good, I can finally add this little gem to my roommate at Wimbledon.
And now, I will be able to chill on this end of the WSOP!
