ElkY Fills Up, Gets Paid

The board read an daunting {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} when we caught up with the action on the turn. Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier bet around 2,000. His opponent, who had initially checked, called.

The river was the {4-Spades} and again the other player checked again. This time ElkY bet 3,150 and his opponent called and then immediately mucked to ElkY's {a-Clubs}{4-Hearts} for a full house.

ElkY had taken a few hits before that, but is now back up to 27,000.
