Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

The first hand had Rupert Elder raise to 2,200 from early position. The button called the bet but the big blind wanted to raise it up. He made it 10,000 more to go. Elder not wanting the action to be over preflop made it another 11,000 to go for a total of 21,000. The button folded and the big blind thought before calling.

They saw a flop of {j-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}. We thought there was going to be action but yet there was none as both players checked to the turn. On the turn of the {8-Hearts} The gentleman in seat 10 led out for 20,000. This put Elder in the tank.

After pondering Elder went all in for 40,000 total. This prompted Elder's opponent to fold and gave Elder a big pot.

Elder went right back to work leading out again preflop for 2,200. This time there were no re-raises and the button and small blind called.

The flop of {9-Spades}{j-Spades}{8-Spades} led to Elder betting again for 4,100. Both his opponents called. The turn went check all around on the {4-Diamonds}, and the river finished with the {q-Diamonds}.

This time it was checked to the button who bet out 10,000. Elder was the only one to call and was disappointed to see his opponent flip up the {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} for a rivered straight. Elder is sitting pretty with 95,000.
