Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier is already locked into a spot as one of the biggest winners of the 2017 World Series of Poker. Grospellier finished second in the High Roller for One Drop, picking up a juicy $2,278,657 reward.

His momentum apparently carries on even in the $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed. Grospellier was in the big blind, facing an all-in from the player in the cutoff. It was about 5,000, and ElkY didn't spend more than a second calling to put his opponent at risk.

Grospellier had {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} and was up against {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}. He needed some high cards on the board, and indeed, he got some. It was a fast process as the dealer revealed the {8-}{K-}{9-}{K-}{A-} on the board, improving ElkY's hand to a full house.
