Darren Elias Defeats Conor Shelly

Level 16 : 400/800, 0 ante

We found Connor Shelly staring at an all-in bet from Darren Elias, who covered him on a {10-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{q-Diamonds} board. Shelly, who had bet 12,000, put his palm to his forehead before dropping in a stack of chips to call. Elias showed {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}, and Shelly, who said he had a lower boat, mucked.

"I should have just folded," he said. "It's not even really a cooler."
