Karim El Rharbaoui beats Patrick Renkers to title at France Poker Series Sunfest Mazagan



ps news thn.jpgKarim El Rharbaoui last weekend won the France Poker Series Mazagan Sunfest for MAD 505,000 ($59,443) beating French journeyman Richard Ekert and Dutch grinder Patrick Renkers into podium finishes.

Renkers would have fancied his chances on the final table given his experience and $313,216 in live tournament winnings. The Dutchman were a chip leader at EPT Prague last season and ended up losing a big flip to bubble the general table in ninth.
