Julien Martini is a French poker player and four-time WSOP bracelet winner.
With over $5 million in career earnings, he won his first bracelet in 2018 in a $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better event for $239,771. He beat Kate Hoang heads-up, and says it was a dream come true.
"I was dreaming about this for seven years," he told PokerNews. "And it is one of the best things in my life. I am very proud and super happy."
The following year, Martini finished second in the inaugural PokerStars Players Championship for $2,974,000.

That year he also won a $10,000 Big Bet Mix title at the Poker Masters, enjoying what some called a 'breakout year'.
Post-pandemic, Martini wasted no time in winning two more WSOP bracelets at the 2023 WSOP Europe, first winning the €2,500 Short Deck Hold'em event for his second WSOP title, before becoming the most-decorated French player in WSOP history a few days later with victory in the €2,000 8-Game.
And he wasn't finished yet. Named as a player to watch in 2022, Martini won his fourth WSOP bracelet in the $10,000 Razz Championship for $328,604.
