France
Jean Baptiste Loll is a French poker player known for his deep runs in France Poker Series (FPS) and European Poker Tour (EPT) events. His notable results include a runner-up finish in the 2014 EPT Deauville Random Bounty and a fourth-place in the 2013 FPS Paris High Roller.
Early Career
Jean Baptiste Loll emerged on the live tournament scene in France, participating in major events such as the France Poker Series (FPS) and European Poker Tour (EPT). His earliest recorded cash came in 2012 at the FPS Gujan-Mestras Main Event, where he advanced to Day 2 but was eliminated before the money bubble.
Major Tournament Results
Loll's first significant cash occurred in November 2013 at the FPS Paris High Roller (€2,200 buy-in). He finished 4th out of 102 players, earning €18,000. The final hand saw his A♠9♠ lose to Marc Trijaud's 7♣7♠ after Trijaud flopped a set.
In January 2014, Loll achieved his best result to date: runner-up in the EPT Deauville Random Bounty (€900 buy-in). From a field of 159 entrants, he took second place for €19,100—his largest single tournament payout.

Playing Style
While no direct analysis of Loll's style exists, his results suggest an aggressive approach. In the 2013 FPS High Roller, he was described as attempting to steal blinds, moving all-in from the big blind with ace-nine, indicating a willingness to apply pressure. French players are often associated with mathematical, strategic play, and Loll's deep runs in medium-to-high buy-in events align with that profile.
