Bertrand Grospellier Eliminated in 32nd Place ($38,085)

Binh Nguyen put in the first raise, which cleared out half the table; Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier put in the second raise, which cleared out the other half. Nguyen gave his decision some deliberation before moving all in. He had Grospellier covered. ElkY quickly called all in and the cards were on their backs:

Nguyen: {A-Diamonds}

Grospellier: {J-Clubs}

Grospellier ducked Nguyen's overcard outs with a flop of {3-Diamonds}

, but the

was just about the worst possible non-overcard to hit the turn, as it gave Nguyen a pile of additional outs. The {7-Diamonds}

that fell on the river was one of them, as it made a flush for each player. Nguyen's was the best flush, and as a result Grospellier was eliminated in 32nd place.
