Here Comes Elio!
Well, Elio Fox doesn't have 80,000 chips anymore. He has closer to double that now after dragging a monster pot just before a table break a moment ago.
Fox was kind enough to fill us in on the details of the knockout pot that began with him raising under the gun. He was holding king-queen, and he defended his raise to a three-bet from the player on the button. The flop brought two more queens for Fox, coming . He check-called a bet there, then check-called another bullet on a blank turn. The river was a blank too, and Fox took the lead with a healthy bet of 27,000. Mr. Opponent shoved in for just about double that, and Fox made the call for most of his own chips.
Mr. Opponent could not beat Fox's trip queens, and that big pot pushes Fox up over the 150,000-chip mark and into the chip lead, it appears.
