Pascal Lefrancois

The eyes of the poker community are on what is going on at the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP) in Las Vegas, but not every top poker pro has descended on "Sin City." Some have stayed home, at least for now, and have continued the online poker grind.

Canada's Pascal Lefrancois is one of those top-tier players that spent June 18 grinding online. Lefrancois was one of 77 entrants in the $5,200 Titans Event at PokerStars, and he was the last standing player when the dust had settled.

Only the final nine players received a share of the $385,000 prize pool, with Jargo "bungakat" Alavali being the unfortunate soul that burst the all-important money bubble. With Alavali out of the way, the remaining players locked in at least $12,002 for their efforts.

Bruno "great dant" Volkmann was the first of three Brazilians to bust at the final table; his ninth-place finish came with the previously mentioned $12,002.

"Eccentric_BG" of Bulgaria and David "MissOracle" Yan of New Zealand joined the last of eliminated players, doing so with scores of $13,741 and $18,347, respectively.

The United Kingdom's "SerVlaMin" was the next payer heading to the showers. The Brit collected $24,995 for their sixth-place finish, with Estonian star "DingeBrinker" helping themselves to the $32,704 fifth-place prize.

Fourth place and $43,664 went to Rodrigo "SELOUAN1991" Selouan, and fellow Brazilian Rodrigo "Seijistar" Seiji crashed out in third for $58,296, sending the Titans Event into the heads-up section of the tournament.

Lefrancois battled with Ukraine's "drew.derzh," and came out on top to clinch the $103,915 top prize, resigning the runner-up to a $77,832 consolation prize.

Luca Takes Down the $1K Sunday High Roller

Ivan Luca
Ivan Luca

Ivan "Negriin" Luca turned $1,050 into $33,216 after outlasting 105 opponents in the $1,050 Sunday High Roller. Luca's bounty haul weighed in at more than twice the main prize pool payout, such was the Argentinian's domination at the final table.

It was a tough final table, as most $1,050 buy-in tournaments feature. The eliminations of Ilya "Leqenden" Anatsky in sixth for $4,645, Casimir "Ceis25" Seire in fifth for $8,865, and Matas "bebaimis777" Cimbolas in third for $9,585 left Luca heads-up against "neeno1990."

Luca got he job done against his Austrian opponent, banking $10,798 for first plus $22,328 worth of scalps for a total prize tipping the scales at $33,126. "neeno1990" collected $13,360 in total for their second-place finish.
