It's a second win of the 2012 poker season for "Big" Roger Hairabedian (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: 45th). Hot off his July WPT National Mazagan win, the jolly Frenchman picks up his first WSOP bracelet, winning the 5K PLO event in Cannes earlier today.
Hairabedian becomes the first Frenchman to pickup a WSOP bracelet on French soil.
Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: 4th) was so active at the final table, it seemed as if he was involved in every single hand! His strategy worked, for the most part, as Grinder was able to come back from a short stack to finish third overall in the event.
Coming off a final table performance at WPT Malta last week, Jussi Ryynanen (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: 3rd) earned a fourth place finish here in Cannes.
Jussi Nevanlinna (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: T-633rd), former World Champ Joe Hachem (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: T-633rd), Michel Abacassis (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: T-1,057) and Jason Mercier (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: 248th) also final tabled the PLO event.
