"I'm The New ElkY"

Ten minutes after winning a massive pot with aces, PokerStars Team Pro Arnaud Mattern was dealt pocket rockets again, and won another massive pot.

Mattern opened to 500 from early position, Robson Carlos Venturini three-bet to 1,200 near the button, and the action folded back to Mattern who four-bet to 4,400. Venturini responded by throwing out a rainbow stack of chips in the middle, Mattern moved all in, and Venturini snap-called.

Showdown
Mattern: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Venturini: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The board ran out {6-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{j-Spades}{4-Clubs}{j-Clubs}, and Venturini stormed away from the table, muttering what we can only guess were "earmuff" words in Portuguese.

"I'm the new ElkY," Mattern chuckled. "This is such an easy game."

"That's ridiculous," tablemate and fellow Team Pro Liv Boeree added.

Mattern is on an absolute tear, and leads the pack with over 140,000 chips.
