Elezra on the Rise

Just before the level went up, a player raised in early position and was called by Eli Elezra in the small blind and the player in the big. Elezra and the big blind both checked the {9-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop, prompting the early-position player to bet. Elezra woke up with a check-raise, the big blind got of the way, and the original raiser made the call.

When the {4-Hearts} hit the turn, Elezra bet, his opponent called, and the {3-Hearts} appeared on the turn. The betting was the same as Elezra showed {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, which was no good against his opponent's {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}.
