Lucky Eights for ElkY

[user46392]

Don't mess with the ElkY

We caught up with the hand on the {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{J-Clubs}

flop, with ElkY betting out 8,400 from the small blind. Two seats down in the under the gun position, Diogo Borges raised 15,000 more. Back to ElkY, who made it another 15,000 to go.

Borges disappeared into the tank as a Wall Of Media materialized around the table. After some minutes of Borges sighing and media personnel craning to see, Borges moved all in. Insta-call.

Borges: {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{A-Diamonds}

ElkY:

{8-Hearts}

{8-Diamonds}

Turn:

{3-Clubs}

River:

{Q-Clubs}

Thus ElkY's set of eights was good to put him up to over 300,000, while Borges made his exit.
