No Back-To-Back For ElkY

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier has just been eliminated from the tournament after an unlucky turn card fell while he was all in.

On the flop of {6-Hearts}{j-Spades}{4-Diamonds} ElkY bet out for 625, was re-raised to 2,000 by a player in late position, and then moved all in for around 7,500 total and got a call.

ElkY had {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} for top pair, top kicker leaving his caller with {j-Clubs}{k-Clubs} drawing only to a king

The turn however was the {k-Diamonds} and ElkY hit the rail just three hours after he was awarded his first WSOP bracelet. He won't go back to back, but I doubt he can complain after yesterday's win.
