ElkY on the Rebound

Minutes after doubling his very short stack to a slightly larger short stack, Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier shoved his button for 7,450. His {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs} was up against Justin Young's {k-Spades}{7-Hearts}. The flop couldn't have been much better for Elky. He picked up top pair and a flush draw on {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{3-Clubs}. The {4-Diamonds} turn wasn't very interesting and left Young drawing to two outs. The {8-Spades} river was neither, giving ElkY two pair and his second double up.
