Elky chiplead at the 15k bellagio

http://liveupdates.worldpokertour.com/tournament/?x=updateschips

First prize pays 1.4m, here's a pretty sick hand that got him the chiplead a while back

Action folds around to Joe Ebanks on the button who raises to 26,000. Both Oddie Dardon and Bertrand "Elky"Grospellier call from the blinds. The flop comes J75 and the blinds check it over to Ebanks who bets 44,000. Dardon gets out of the way and Elky calls. The turn brings the Q and again Elky checks. Ebanks places a 90,000 bet in front of him. Elky thinks for a while and stages his chips before putting out a check raise to 255,000. Ebanks calls. The river is the 2 and Elky checks for the third street in a row. Ebanks moves all in for his remaining 300,000. With only a few seconds of though, Elky calls. Ebanks shows K-10 for king high while Elky proves his instincts are second to none by fliping over 76 for a pair of sevens. Ebanks in eliminated and Elky is now up to 1,650,00 to become the new chip leader.

wow that is a sick hand

GOOOO ELKY!

It has started.GLGL

Elky Grospellier raises from the small blind to 275,000, and Nam Le thinks for a short while before he calls from the big blind. The flop comes 10103, Grospellier bets 335,000, and Nam Le thinks for nearly a minute before he calls.

The turn card is the 8, Grospellier thinks for nearly 30 seconds before he checks, and Nam Le takes the same amount of time to bet 400,000. Grospellier quickly calls.

The river card is the 2, and both players quickly check. Elky Grospellier shows A8 to win the pot with two pair, tens and eights, and Nam Le mucks.

Hand #8 - Osmin "Oddie" Dardon has the button in seat 2, with blinds at 50,000-100,000 (10,000 ante).

Elky Grospellier raises from middle position to 260,000, and William Mietz calls from the big blind. The flop comes 974, and both players check.

The flop comes K32, and Grospellier retains the lead with his pocket pair. The turn card is the Q, and Grospellier makes a set of queens to clinch the pot. (The meaningless river card is the 7.)
