ElkY Stays Alive

Level 6 : 150/300, 0 ante

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier was all in when we got to the table and the board read {K-Spades}{9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. He was up against four other players. The first active player checked and the next one bet. Allie Prescott was up next and called before the fourth active player folded. Action fell back on the first player and he folded then the next player called.

The river card was the {2-Hearts} and the two remaining active players checked. First, the side pot was up for grabs. Prescott mucked after he saw his opponent's {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades} for kings and sixes with an ace. Grospellier had that beat though and tabled the {Q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for trip sixes and was able to win the main pot.

Grabbing the main pot allowed ElkY to stay alive and increase his stack back to 3,000, which is where he currently sits.
