Ensan Missteps; ElkY Skyrockets
In the last hand before the break, Bertrand "ElKY" Grospellier opened to 13,000 on the button and Marius-Catalin Pertea called from the small blind. Hossein Ensan three-bet to 31,000 from the big blind. Grospellier took his time before four-betting to 82,000 and Pertea got out of the way.
It took Ensan not even two seconds before announcing all-in. ElkY beat him to the pot and Ensan's face went aghast.
Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier: 
Hossein Ensan: 
The EPT12 Prague winner made a big misstep and was about to pay dearly for it in an 800k pot. With just 15% equity, Ensan needed a miracle but didn't find one on a 
board.
The German had to fork over nearly 400,000 of his stack to the French Team PokerStars Pro, who enters the third break as one of the biggest stacks in the room.
