Two Pair No Good for Elky

We caught this hand as Bertrand "Elky" Grospelier called his opponent's all in bet of 60,000.

Grospelier: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}
Opponent: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

Both players connected on the flop, but Elky's opponent hit it harder when the cards fell {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{10-Spades}. The turn and river brought no help for Elky, finishing {5-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} and knocking him back to 235,000.
