Sam Trickett raised to 8,000, under the gun, and Phil Ivey called on the button. Bertrand "ElkY" Grospeller was short in the small blind and he saw it as a good opportunity to get his chips in the middle. In they went, and Trickett asked for a count. The dealer confirmed it as 102,000 and Trickett moved enough chips in the middle to scare off Phil Ivey and we had a showdown with ElkY at risk of elimination.
