EPT BERLIN HIGH ROLLERS: ElkY DEFEATS MOORMAN, WINS BATTLE OF FRANCE v. ENGLAND

PHOTO: POKERNEWS

It was an epic duel heads up in the EPT Berlin High Rollers Championship. Two of the top poker players in the world, one representing France, the other representing Mother England.

In the end, the Frenchman won it. Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: T-35th) captures yet another poker tournament title, defeating Chris Moorman (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: T-93rd) in what was a duel that neither play seemed to want to end, almost four hours of heads up madness between two of the kings of poker.

ElkY had finished in fourth place in this same event last season.

German pro Marvin Rettenmaier - who finished third - collected his second PTPR Score of 2012. Rettenmaier (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: T-131st) had collected a small score at a Aussie Millions side event back in January.
