Mittelman Takes Some Off Elia

Kevin Elia opened to 61,000 from the cutoff and action folded around to Niel Mettelman in the big blind, who made the call.

Both players checked the {J-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{8-Spades} flop, however, Mittelman would lead out for 65,000 on the {5-Spades} turn. Elia responded by raising to 152,000 and Mittelman called.

The {2-Clubs} completed the board and both players checked.

Mittelman tabled {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a pair of eights and Elia rapped the table in mucked.
