World Champion Fabrice Soulier out but Everest Poker Online Qualifiers still running in the EPT Deauville by Pokerstars

LONDON, February 4th, 2012 — Last year’s H.O.R.S.E. bracelet winner and French player of the year Fabrice Soulier had a hard time in Deauville. It was a short appearance of the Everest Poker pro in the main event. 889 players started with 30,000 chips, Fabrice had 20,000 left in the first break, was down to 10,000 in the second break, and as expected he wasn’t able to leave this road and busted in the end of day 1. Fabrice ‘Fabsoul’ Soulier: “You can’t always win. It is best not to dwell on the defeats and move forward. I will be focusing on the next event, I am especially looking forward to the high roller tournament!”
