2011 WSOP: FRENCH SOUL - FABRICE SOULIER WINS IN OVERTIME

It took an extra day for Fabrice Soulier to pickup his first bracelet but, he didn't mind one bit! Soulier wins the 10K H.O.R.S.E. World Championship.

The Frenchman had a huge chip leader heads up last night but, we just couldn't get things settled - that's when, around 5AM Vegas time, it was decided that the players (Soulier and Shawn Buchanan) would come back later in the day today to finish things off.

It took four hands for Soulier to dispose of Buchanan and collect the first WSOP bracelet in his career. Soulier earns his second PTPR Score of the season - he was in contention late at EPT Berlin back in April.

Many notables were in contention late: Andrey Zaichenko, Daniel Ospina, Tow Dwan, Michael Binger, Jacobo Fernandez, Max Pescatori, Kyle Loman, Joe Cassidy, Ram Vaswani, Chau Giang and John Monnette all were part of the Final 18.
