Elezra Over 20,000

The player under the gun raised it up to 450 preflop and Eli Elezra called from the big blind.

The flop came {j-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Elezra checked. The UTG player bet 525 and Elezra check-raised to 1,925. The player then re-raised all in and Elezra called showing {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds} to be ahead with his set against the UTG player's {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

The turn and river came {k-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} to give the player two pair, but it wasn't enough and Eli took the chips and moved up to 22,000
