Our Champion for Peace

BERTRAND GROSPELLIER – ELKY

It was with great pride and emotion that I went to Timor with Peace and Sport. It was very important for me to go to the end of my initiative and meet the children who benefitted from the finds that we raised from a tournament organized by my partner, PokerStars.


True precursor of Esports in France, he successfully converted to poker. He is the biggest-ever winner in the tournament in French history.
In June 2011, he became the first French person to achieve a ‘hat trick’ i.e.  winner of World Series of Poker, the World Poker Tour and the European Poker Tour.
