ElkY Doubles Through Trickett
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.
