An under-the-gun player, who we'll call "UTG," raised to 1,525 and Team PokerStars Pro (France) Bertrand Grospellier, who we'll call "ElkY," made the call from the small blind. It was heads up to the flop, which ElkY checked. UTG bet 1,800, ElkY called, and both players checked the turn.
When the hit the river, ElkY lead out for 3,200, UTG raised to 30,000, and the Frenchman folded. Many may recall Grospellier as rising to fame in Europe, largely on the European Poker Tour (EPT). To learn more about the EPT, check out www.europeanpokertour.com or go ahead and visit PokerStars.
