Elior Sion ne joue pas souvent en MTT mais il ne rate jamais le Poker Players Championship �� 50.000$ l'entr��e des World Series Of Poker. Sp��cialiste des variantes, l'Am��ricain a inscrit son nom au palmar��s, empoch�� un bracelet WSOP et remport�� un peu plus de 1,3 million de dollars. Il entre dans l'histoire du jeu avec un succ��s qui lui permet aussi d'inscrire son nom sur le Chip Reese Memorial Trophy.
"C'est incroyable. C'��tait comme un long voyage. Il faut prendre une ��tape apr��s l'autre. Tout n'a pas ��t�� lin��aire mais tant que vous avez des jetons, tout peut se se passer", a d��clar�� le champion, visiblement tr��s fatigu�� apr��s un head's up de pr��s de 5 heures contre Johannes Becker(862.649$).
Sion fait notamment r��f��rence au Jour 3 et au moment o�� il a perdu un coup de Pot Limit Omaha contre Mike Wattel pour tomber �� 60 000 jetons... sur des limites 25000-50000 !
"Tout peut arriver sur un tournoi. Il faut y croire et des fois tout s'aligne parfaitement", a ajout�� le champion qui a doubl�� la main suivante contre Wattel avant de doubler de nouveau dans la foul��e contre James Obst. Proche du n��ant, le joueur britannique va alors remonter vers les sommets pour se retrouver en t��te du tournoi �� 3 tables restantes.
"J'ai eu beaucoup de chance. Je n'��tais pas frustr��, j'ai pris les choses comme elles venaient. [...] Apr��s cela, mes adversaires avaient un peu peur, ils avaient l'impression que rien ne m'atteignait plus", a expliqu�� celui qui d��roule online sous le pseudonyme de "Crazy Elior".
Elior Sion triomphe sur un field ultra relev�� et prouve qu'il est un joueur accompli. Il a notamment dispos�� d'Isaac Haxton (3e pour 595 812$), Daniel Negreanu (5e - 300 852$) et Paul Volpe (6e (220 111$) lors de ce Jour 5 consacr�� �� la finale !

| 6 | Paul Volpe | United States | $220,111 |
Chipleader �� l'entame de la journ��e d��cisive, la superstar Canadien a rapidement encha?n�� les pots perdus et montr�� sa frustration �� plusieurs reprises. Il devra attendre son 7e bracelet et son 6e Top 20 du festival 2017 ne le consolera probablement pas...
Tr��s confiant avant la TF, Negreanu avait pr��venu que la pr��sence de Sion juste �� sa gauche serait un handicap s��rieux
"Daniel Negreanu ��tait le joueur qui me faisait le plus peur. Il sait ce qui se passe �� tout moment, c'��tait le joueur le plus mena?ant. Voir qu'il ne rentrait aucun tirage et qu'il n'avait pas de cartes, cela a ouvert la porte et j'ai pu faire mon truc", a confirm�� le vainqueur, pas malchanceux de voir Becker sortir Haxton avec les 
contre 
.
Malgr�� un avantage de 3 contre 1 en jetons au d��but du dernier duel, le joueur allemand n'a jamais pu prendre l'ascendant sur Sion. Les deux hommes se sont bien bagarr��s en PLO et en Razz et quand Sion a finalement pris l'avantage, il ne l'a plus jamais lach��.
"Il a vraiment tr��s tr��s bien jou��. Nous nous sommes beaucoup affront��s online et il a montr�� qu'il ��tait capable de jouer contre les meilleurs du monde. J'ai beaucoup de respect pour lui et les autres finalistes", a expliqu�� Sion qui ne "se voit pas dans le poker encore tr��s longtemps". "C'est un moment de ma vie, un moyen aussi de faire ce que je veux. Avec cette victoire, je vais pouvoir consacrer du temps �� des choses que j'avais mises au fond de mon esprit", termine-t-il.
