Elder Statesman
Level 13
: 1,200/2,400, 200 ante
The quietly composed Rupert Elder is quietly hovering between 160k and 220k, picking up a pot now by betting 12,000 when it was checked to him on the button of a board after a bit of a think. On the river Elder's bet was immediate when it was checked to him again - this time 25,000. Whatever his opponent wanted to see, that wasn't it and Elder picked up another pot without showdown.
Elsewhere the British contingent has been further slimmed with the loss of John Eames.
