The Elk

Under the gun, Costantino Russo open-raised to 1,500. Action passed all the way around to the big blind where ElkY stuck in a reraise to 4,400. Russo didn't waste much time moving all in for about 24,000, and ElkY quickly made the call with his larger stack to put his man at risk.

Showdown
Russo: {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{J-Spades}

Grospellier: {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

"Come on, you can't win four flips in a row!" prodded Russo.

Wanna bet?

The {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

dropped right on the flop, and the board of {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{10-Diamonds}

{3-Hearts}

{A-Spades}

{8-Diamonds}

sent Russo out the door. ElkY's two pair earns him the knockout pot and a chip boost up over the century mark. It looks like he's got about 105,000 as he stacks that pot.
