Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Level 13

Razz

Kentaro Hori: //
Eli Elezra: //

The action was discovered with Elezra having fired out a big bet on seventh street and Hori raised. After a brief moment, Elezra re-raised, and Hori called. The latter was shown the bad news as Elezra tabled a six-five low that trumped the seven-six low held by Hori, and Elezra was awarded the pot.

This was one of Elezra's first hands back from his no-limit tournament where he said he ran up his 220,000 chips to over a million. He chipped up to a comfortable 240,000 in the nine-game mix where he is currently playing.
