ElkY Doubles One Up

[user66118]

Level 1 : 50/75, 0 ante

We didn't see all of the action, only walking up after the turn card on a {8-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {A-Clubs} board. Based on the positions, it looked like Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier had checked, then raised all in when his opponent bet. It was all 5,300 for his opponent to call, and he did so quickly.

ElkY showed {J-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {10-Spades} for queens up, but his opponent's {K-Hearts} {10-Clubs} {A-Spades} {Q-Spades} had turned the joint. There'd need to be a full house for ElkY to win the pot, but the river {7-Hearts} was a blank. Mr. Opponent still had two of his add-on lammers, so he's doubled back to about 23,000. ElkY was doing well early, and this loss knocks him back to a still-just-fine 16,500 chips.
