Won one WSOP gold bracelet and one WPT
Although he routinely plays amongst the games best players and has millions in career winnings, Eli Elezra does not consider himself to be a poker professional. First, he is a family man, happily married with five children. Second, he is multi-million dollar businessman with one of the most successful nightclubs on the Vegas strip. Third, he is a poker "enthusiast" who just happens to play regularly in the Big Game at the Bellagio when his first two priorities allow it. Born in Israel, Eli injured his leg badly while in the army. But with this curse came a blessing, as Eli was able to hone his poker skills while bedridden. After being discharged from the army, Eli eventually made his way to Las Vegas where he would become a world-class businessman and earn himself the nickname, "Mr. Vegas." As his business empire grew, Eli developed a nice bankroll for playing poker and worked his way up from the $10 games. Soon enough he would find himself playing with the best of the best - and holding his own. Though he is mainly a cash game player, Eli has also had success in the big tournaments, winning a WPT championship and a WSOP gold bracelet.
