We found Rupert Elder heads up in a hand with Daniel Ghionoiu. The flop read 
and Ghionoiu came out swinging for 550. Elder stuck around to see the 
hit the turn. Ghionoiu bet 975 and once again Elder called.
The board completed with the 
and Ghionoiu shot out 1,200. Elder called a third time and Ghionoiu showed 
for a rivered pair of queens. Elder rolled over 
for a pair of kings and he was able to take down the pot.
Elder is off to a good start here on Day 1a and he's looking to capitalize on the success he's already found here in Berlin. Just a few days ago Elder found himself heads up with Max Heinzelmann in Event 7: €1,000 No-Limit Hold'em Turbo. Elder was able to defeat the German heads up to take down the €49,800 first-place prize.
