ElkY Eliminated

Level 5 : 100/200, 0 ante

Earlier we reported that Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier was knocked down to under 1,000, and now he has been eliminated. Grospellier put the last of his 850 in preflop, and action folded around to the big blind, who made the call.

Grospellier: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Big Blind: {a-Hearts}{9-Spades}

Ali Eslami said he folded an ace, making the flop that much more burtal for Grospellier, as it came {10-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. The turn came the {6-Spades}, and the river brought the {3-Spades}, and Grospellier couldn't catch up, and he has been eliminated just in time to play the $2,500 No-Limit Holdem/Pot Limit Omaha at 5.
