Deauville, France’s poker stronghold! This week, the Normandy town of Deauville played host to the France Poker<\/a> Series in the Casino Barri\u00e8re’s legendary Salon des Ambassadeurs, just a stone’s throw from the Hotel Normandy<\/a>. 615 players competed in the main event, which cost \u20ac1,100. The structure of the tournament was superb. The Barri\u00e8re and PokerStars teams did a superb job on this festival, without a single false note. <\/h5>\n

Numerous figures from the circuit made the trip, including PMU Team Pro Erwann Pecheux<\/a>, his compadre Pierre Merlin, the inescapable ElkY, who finished 12th, and Betclic player Benjamin Pollak<\/a>, who took a fine 4th place for just over 39,000 euros. French poker pioneer Bruno Fitoussi was also there. <\/h5>\n
In addition to the main tournament, numerous side tournaments were organized. The casino terrace was open, and playing a tournament in September is a very pleasant experience. Streaming of the Final Table was particularly well attended, with over 3,000 spectators on average. <\/h5>\n
