Big Pot Goes to Elkins; Thompson Exits

Level 13: Blinds 3,000/6,000/6,000


Shawn Thompson moved all in preflop for around 90,000 and was called by Carter Elkins and Jose Barboza.


The flop came out [jc8c9c] and both Elkins and Barboza checked to see the [qs] appear on the turn.


Elkins then moved all in for a total of 109,000, which sent Barboza into the tank. After some deliberation, he slid out calling chips and all of the cards were tabled, with Barboza covering.


Shawn Thompson: [khkc]

Carter Elkins: [ah10d]

Jose Barboza: [qdjs]


Elkins currently held the best hand with his straight, but he needed to dodge a queen or a jack from Barboza and also a ten or a club from Thompson.


Miraculously, the river came a complete brick [7d] and Elkins scooped the entire pot with his straight, eliminating Thompson in the process.


Shawn Thompson: 0

Carter Elkins: 300,000

Jose Barboza: 75,000
