Last Thursday, Luneau added a half-million dollars to his bankroll, as according to HighStakesDB, he “won over 60% of his money during the morning sessions, where he enjoyed two six-figure table wins playing against the likes of Gus Hansen, samrostan, jungleman12, PostflopAction, and punting-peddler. After a two-and-a-half hour lunch break, Alexonmoon continued to win consistently over the afternoon and evening to end the day with his monster win.”

According to HighStakesDB, Luneau calls the UK home now and the site began following him in 2009. Although he has opted out of long-term tracking on HighStakesDB, the site has published his August results, which included $350,000 in profit as of the 3rd, $458,000 as of the 4th, $756,000 as of the 5th, and $1.27 million as of the 7th. HighStakesDB has not provided an update on Luneau’s progress since August 7.

The only game Luneau has logged this month is Eight-Game. He “also plays as BiatchPeopleon PokerStars[and] used to play as Alex Luneau on Full Tilt,” according to HighStakesDB.

On the decision to move from France to London, Luneau told the site in a 2012 interview, “I had to leave France if I wanted to keep playing high-stakes and Mixed Games, as .com poker sites do not run in France. I love traveling, so I was really happy about moving to London. I have hardly played any live games in London, as the Mixed Games are small and often run as full ring, so it is too boring for me.”

On the live poker felts, Luneau has $161,000 in total winnings, according to the Hendon Mob, $100,000 of which has come this year.
