Battle Internet: Galfond Doubles Up

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier had a 7-to-1 chip lead in his match against Phil "OMGClayAiken" Galfond. Pre-flop, ElkY raised enough to set Galfond all in with a call. Galfond squeezed out {a-Spades}{8-Hearts} and called. He had to duck ElkY's {q-Spades}{4-Spades}.

There wasn't much drama in this one. Galfond flopped an ace and secured a tidy double-up to 24,000.
