ElkY gets a nosejob
We round-up some stories you may have missed, including a business venture for bracelet winners and Fedor crushing on a much smaller scale.
ElkY goes under the knife
He may be a Triple Crown winner living a charmed life, but for whatever reason Bertrand 'ElkY' Grospellier was not happy with his nose, leading him to have surgery.
Maybe that kick to the head from Lex Veldhuis is what caused his deviated septum? Here he is with the before and after shots:

Main goal was to fix my deviated septum because I couldn't breath properly, and swelling will be reduced again in the end pic.twitter.com/aEPfTpfSz6

Fedor wins, somehow not millions
Now for a warp in the space time continuum. Fedor Holz has once again won a side event on the European circuit. So far, all normal.
The bizarre thing is it was not for millions and millions of dollars. He won the €5,200 Hyper Turbo event at the PokerStars Championship, defeating 37 other players.
He won €57,140 for his first title of the year, but given his record in Super High Roller events, this almost seems like a bad day at the office for the retiree.
Brunson and Pescatori buy a restaurant
While some professional poker players end up delivering pizza, two bracelet winners have just become management.
Todd Brunson and Max Pescatori have just purchased the Roma Deli restaurant in Las Vegas, a few miles away from the Strip.
Brunson told CardsChat he had a 25% stake share in the business but did not reveal how involved Pescatori will be.
Can you spot any differences with ElkY's nose? Is Fedor a losing player now? Would you eat at a restaurant ran by poker pros? Let us know in the comments:
