Eli Elezra Moves to the Top

It appears that Eli Elezra is currently our chip leader with close to a 300,000 stack. He picked up some of those chips in a hand where he and two other players saw a flop of {2-Spades}{2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}. The first player bet 11,000, the second moved all in for 25,000, and Elezra called. The first player folded and Elezra's {2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} led his opponent's {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}. Elezra dodged hearts on the turn and river and took down a tidy pot that boosted him toward the chip lead.
