On a flop of {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

{8-Spades}

{4-Diamonds}

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier check-called the 3,500 bet of Andre Akkari.

They saw the {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

on the turn and both players checked. The river was the {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

and Grospellier fired out 7,600. Akkari called and was sick to see that his pocket nines had been cracked by the {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

of Grospellier.

A few hands later Akkari was all in with {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

against a dominating {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

and when the board blanked out {7-?}

{7-?}

{4-?}

{A-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

Akkari was eliminated from the event.
