Leeds Leaps Ahead

Damien Elsing opened to 350 and found a caller on the button before Brandon Leeds made it 1,575 from the small blind. With the action back on Elsing, he moved all in for 4,200 and so did the player on the button before the action was back on Leeds. Shaking his head in what was indeed a frustrating situation, he threw in his 5,175 to make the call.

Elsing: {J-Clubs}{J-Spades}
Leeds: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}

The flop fell down {K-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} to leave Elsing drawing to one out and Leeds two, as the player who had them both covered was looking in great shape with his overpair and flush draw.

The turn peeled the safe {3-Hearts}, but the river landed the devastating blow of the {K-Clubs} to see Elsing hit the rail as Leeds triples up to over 14,000 in chips.
