Eli's Comin'
Eli Heath and the player to his immediate left tangled up in a big preflop raising war that left them both with all of their chips in the middle. The last raise of the series was a shove from the unknown player for his 19,350; Heath tanked and called with the covering stack just as we walked up to the table.
Showdown
Heath:
Opponent:
The board ran safe for Heath and his pair of hooks: . With handshakes all 'round, we've lost another player, and that elimination pushes Heath up around the chip lead with close to 70,000. We'll have to get a better count when he finishes stacking up.
It could be a few minutes...
