Fair Game for ElkY

An under-the-gun player raised to 7,000 and was called by Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier in the cutoff. Ryan Fair then moved all in for 62,000 from the small blind, which inspired the original raiser to fold. However, Grospellier made the call to put Fair at risk.

Fair: {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}
Grospellier: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}

Grospellier was ahead and had Fair dominated. The {3-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} flop was no help to Fair, and neither was the {4-Diamonds} turn. In order to stay alive, Fair needed to catch a jack on the river. The dealer burned and out out the {9-Diamonds}. It was a bittersweet end for Fair as he made his way to the door.
