Titan Poker $100,000 Fort Knox Winner
Happy, but not French. I think.
If *I* were a certain Frenchman, *I* would walk around pointing my finger at women while shouting "BAM!" and expect them to swoon into a dead faint. After all, if I were Remy Elkoubi, I would have not only won a $100,000 jackpot at Titan Poker after racking up six Fort Knox tournament wins, but also won the winning hand with a Straight Flush.
The odds...are staggering.
Known as bennyking on Titan, Remy is the fifth player this year to hit that big time jackpot, but the only one to do so with a Straight Flush. He'd tried to win the jackpot before, but winning six consecutive Fort Knox Jackpot Sit 'n' Go tournaments is not quite as easy as falling off a log. Now that he's done it, and done it with a Straight Flush, I wouldn't be suprised to hear he's been trying to do all sorts of impossible things, such as eating escargot without making a squicky face.
If you want to give it a shot, buy-ins for the Fort Knox tournaments are $50 + $9 over at Titan Poker.
