  • Eliahu Ilan Elezra (Hebrew: אלי אלעזרא; born November 24, 1960, in Jerusalem) is an Israeli professional poker player and businessman, now living in Las Vegas, Nevada. With five WSOP bracelets and a WPT win in the post Moneymaker era, he is one of the most successful players since the poker boom. Since moving to America, Elezra has had more than 70 money finishes in the WSOP in Omaha, Texas Hold 'em and Draw events. In July 2004, Elezra won the WPT Mirage Poker Showdown, where he collected $1,024,574 for his efforts. Elezra has played in "The Big Game" in Vegas for many years. He appeared in the second and third season of the Poker Superstars Invitational Tournament. Elezra came known to the big public when he played in seasons 1–6 of the legendary GSN series High Stakes Poker and has appeared on several episodes of Poker After Dark. He also was a Full Tilt Pro. Elezra won his first bracelet by winning the World Championship Seven Card Stud Hi-Low in the WSOP of 2007 after defeating Scotty Nguyen heads-up. Before the event, Elezra had made a side bet with Barry Greenstein laying 10:1 odds that he would win a World Series bracelet in 2007. He bet $25,000 and collected $250,000, resulting in more money than the first place prize in the event that he won. As of 2022, his total live tournament winnings exceed $5,000,000. His cashes at the WSOP account for over $3,000,000 of those winnings. Elezra released a biography about his life and career in poker in March 2017 entitled Poker Legend. The book was co-written by professional Israeli poker players Matan Krakow and Yoav Ronal. The book was translated into English by Robbie Strazynski and published by Two Plus Two Publishing under the title Pulling the Trigger in January 2019. Elezra was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame in 2021. (en)

  • Eliahu Ilan "Eli" Elezra, hebreiska: אליהו אילן אלעזר, född 24 november 1960 i Jerusalem, är en israelisk-amerikansk professionell pokerspelare. Han har vunnit tre World Series of Poker och en World Poker Tour samt har kammat hem totalt $3 165 898 i prispengar. I sina unga år tog Elezra den obligatoriska israeliska värvningen och ansökte om att ansluta sig till Golanibrigaden men blev istället placerad hos Israels flygvapen, något som han vägrade och fick tillbringa tre veckor i fängelse för det. I ett senare skede fick Elezra som han ville och blev medlem hos brigaden och stred i Libanonkriget 1982, där han skadade ena benet så illa att han var tvungen att lämna militären. Elezra kom till USA via Alaska på mitten av 1980-talet och var där fram till 1988 när han flyttade till Las Vegas i Nevada och började spela poker. Utanför pokern äger han flera företag som verkar i branscherna för detaljhandel, fastigheter och film samt en nattklubb som ligger utmed The Strip i Las Vegas. (sv)
