Big Stax 500 (Day 1B): Elsby Gets Some Back

Level 15 (Blinds 2,000/4,000/500)
Total Day 1B Entries: 183

Matt Elsby (Chandler, AZ) had been the chip leader for most of the day, but trended downwards returning from dinner, getting as low as 100,000 (from 380,000).  The action leading up his double up just moments ago hasn't been verified, but it was clear that the chips got in on the turn of a board reading  4 9 K♠ 5:

Elsby: 4♠ 5♠
Players X: A A♠

River: Q♠

Elsby's opponent couldn't believe he had lost the hand, even commenting on the extra outs he gained with the heart draw.  Matt's count to match was 117,300, added to the amount that was already in the pot, and he is now back over 300,000.
