Darren Elias is in pole position as he tries to win an unprecedented fifth World Poker Tour title as the chip leader of the final table of the WPT L.A. Poker Classic at the HyperX Esports Arena in Las Vegas.
Some poker players dominate certain poker tours.
Phil Hellmuth Jr is the undisputed master of the World Series of Poker (WSOP), Phil Ivey used to win the Aussie Millions High Rollers with his eyes closed, and then you have Darren Elias – the man who commands the World Poker Tour (WPT).
Coming into the Season XVII WPT L.A Poker Classic (LAPC) Elias had won an unprecedented four WPT Main Event titles, and with only six players left from the 545 that chipped in $10,000 apiece during the Commerce Casino spectacular, Elias leads an assault on an incredible fifth title.
