Elky Goes Bust

Bertrand Grospellier pushed his short stack in under the gun and got called by the button. Grospellier showed {A-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and was up against {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}.

When the board ran out {5-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{4-Spades} Elky picked up some outs, but neither the {4-Hearts} on the turn or the {6-Hearts} on the river were the cards he needed.
