Cailly's Poker Journey

Cailly got her introduction to poker in the late noughties after her roommates started playing weekly Sit-and-Go tournaments in their shared living room. Perhaps indicating a natural-born gambling ability, Lucille quickly found herself booking a last-minute flight to Las Vegas to get over a breakup. Luckily, she didnt land alone in the poker capital, after meeting French professional poker player Manuel Bevand and a friend at the airport.

After this encounter, Cailly dabbled in poker journalism, live-updating EPTs and WPTs while honing her skills online. In 2010, a series of MTT successes persuaded her to jump straight in and become a full-time pro.

Cailly mainly plied her trade online, earning the respect of her French peers as a true "grinder" as well as some serious money.
