Elezra Eli-Minated

[user46392]

Eli Elezra, who had clawed back a few chips to bring his short stack up to around 17,000, has been eliminated. He made a good move, moving all in to a 4,600 bet from Sean Burstein on the {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{8-Spades}

{2-Spades}

flop. Elezra was holding {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{J-Spades}

to Burstein's {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

and the turn was a harmless {4-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

, but Burstein hit the cruel {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

river to end Elezra's tournament life.
