Vacuuming Up Chips

After one player opened the pot to 7,700, Bertrand Grospellier reraised to about 23,000, and his opponent moved all in for ~140,000 total. ElkY instantly called, turning over one black ace and one red ace. His opponent could only show {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came {J-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}. Neither player held a diamond, and ElkY has claimed yet another victim. Just as the dinner break hits, Grospellier takes the chip lead with a very impressive stack of around 470,000.
