ElkY Fini

It turns out ElkY is human.

After winning that hand just a short while ago to push up close to 40,000, Bertrand Grospellier soon found himself in another big one versus Davidi Kitai. With the board showing {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{10-Hearts}, ElkY pushed out a bet of 7,700, and after a pause, Kitai called.

The river brought the {5-Clubs}. This time ElkY bet 12,200 -- about half his remaining stack -- to which Kitai responded by shoving all in. ElkY considered for nearly a half-minute before letting his hand go, and Kitai showed him his hand -- {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} for quads! Kitai was up to about 80,000 after that hand.

Soon after that one, a player in middle position raised, another called, and ElkY shoved all in from the button. The blinds and original raiser folded, but the remaining player called, showing {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}. ElkY showed {A-}{7-}. The board ran out {4-}{5-}{10-}{9-}{K-}, and that river king meant ElkY had finally reached his end.
