Losing is Never Easy

[user92162]

Getting eliminated sucks, but if you've got to be eliminated, why not by one of Australia's better online players?

We're not sure this entered the head of Jonathan 'xMONSTERxDONGx' Karamalikis' latest victim, but in any case he was beaten by one of the best.

On a flop of {k-Diamonds}

{k-Diamonds}

{7-Hearts}

{6-Diamonds}

the opponent checked from the big blind and Karamalikis led out 5,500. Anothe ropponent got out of the way before the big blind moved all in over the top.

Karamalikis snap called (slow rolling isn't as safe when done live) and tabled {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{7-Clubs}

leaving his opponent's {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

needing to hit the flush outs.

The {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

and

{8-Clubs}

river were not to be, leaving him to possibly ponder the above sentiments on his walk to the rail.
