ElkY Crosses a Million

Mike Sowers and Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier were heads up with the board reading {a-Spades}{j-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{6-Clubs}, and about 200,000 in the middle. Sowers checked to Grospellier who tossed out 111,000, sending Sowers into the tank.

He eventually flipped one yellow T1,000 chip forward, slid out a stack of orange T5,000 chips, and Grospellier opened up {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} for trip aces.

"Nice hand," Sowers sighed, mucking his hand.
