French Civil War: ElkY Falls

ElkY was all in for his last 55,000 chips preflop holding {K-Spades} {Q-Clubs}, and Ludovic Lacay's {A-Spades} {10-Clubs} was ahead and poised to finish off Grospellier's stack.

The flop all but sealed the deal for Lacay as it came out {7-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {A-Diamonds}. ElkY was drawing dead when the {9-Hearts} landed on fourth street, and the battle has ended with Lacay emerging victorious. The {6-Clubs} filled out the board as the two men were already shaking hands and wishing each other well in French.

Grospellier's got his second cash at this WSOP, and this one's good for almost $40,000. It's not what he was looking for, though, and the rest of the surviving field will be relieved to see his name removed from the bracket overnight.

Ludovic Lacay has advanced to the round of eight.
