Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

There were plenty of chips already in the middle and a bet of 110,000 out in front of Darren Elias on the {K-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs} board. His opponent, Lee Markholt, took some time and then raised all in for 302,000. Elias quickly called with the {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for top two pair, but he was behind the {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} for Markholt. The river completed the board with the {6-Clubs}, and Markholt doubled up.

Markholt moved to approximately 750,000 in chips, and Elias dropped down to 254,000.
