Team PokerStars Pros Collide

A pair of Team PokerStars Pros, Bertrand 'ElkY' Grospellier and Emad Tahtouh, just found themselves heads-up in a big pot that resulted in ElkY's elimination from the tournament.

On a flop showing {6-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}, Emad led out with a 1,500 bet and ElkY moved all in over the top for a total of 6,225. After some friendly banter, Tahtouh made the call and revealed {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}, having ElkY's {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} quite dominated.

The turn and river blanked out {3-Diamonds}, {4-Spades} and ElkY was eliminated from the tournament as its 58th place finisher.
