Biography

Sylvain Berthelot is an amateur poker player best known for winning the €1,100 Estrella's Main Event at the 2024 EPT Barcelona for €499,224.

Berthelot had just $7,443 heading into the event, started the day as a short stack but ran it all the way up to a nearly half-million score. He stepped back from poker for several years to focus on family life but got back into the game with the help of some friends.

The Estrellas Main Event drew 7,138 entries for a prize pool of €6,852,480.

"I can't believe it," Berthelot told PokerNews in a winner's interview. "I need my friends to pinch me because it's such a dream. I don't have the words. I'm really happy. It's. It's an unbelievable sentiment. I can't explain my feeling."
