Velador Vanquished

Level 7

Stud

"Seat open! Table 361," a dealer yelled. Luis Velador had fallen at the hands of 2010 World Series of Poker Main Event champ Jonathan Duhamel.

The specifics of the hand escaped us, but we do know Velador got it in with fives and sixes in the first four cards against Duhamel, who started with aces. Velador held through sixth street, but Duhamel managed to catch a third ace on seventh to dispatch his opponent.

ElkY Chips Up

Level 7

No-Limit Hold'em

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier appears to be using the big bet games to chip up. One hand after picking up the blinds and antes with an under the gun raise, he defended his big blind against a Brian Tate 2,800 open.

Grospellier check-called 4,500 on the {k-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{j-Hearts} flop and both players checked the {k-Spades} turn. But when the {6-Clubs} river fell Grospellier led out for 11,100, Tate wasted little time making the call and mucking after Grospellier tabled {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.
