Lucille Cailly Makes Final Table of EPT Grand Final Season 8

French female poker player Lucille Cailly has made the final table of the EPT Grand Final Season 8.

Cailly has excelled mostly online.  From the Poker Stars blog

Cailly got her introduction to poker five years ago when her room-mates started playing weekly SNGs 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 break-up. Luckily, she didn’t land alone in the poker capital, after meeting French pro 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. Since then, Cailly mainly plays online, earning the respect of her French peers as a true "grinder" as well as some serious money. Cailly’s best live result was winning a €1k event at the now-defunct Cercle Wagram club in Paris for €26,190. She has also cashed at the Deauville EPTs in 2010 and 2012. A former epistemology student, Lucille lives in La Défense, near Paris.
