Rytis Taujanskas Busts in 10th in Dramatic Hand

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Rytis Taujanskas was all in and at risk but with a similar stack to Christopher Kyriacou.

Taujanskas: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Kyriacou: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

“I don’t want to hear any noise if the king hits.”

The flop was {3-Spades}{2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}.

When the {k-Hearts} hit the turn Taujanskas gave a little fist pump and a “Yes,” and turned away from the table.

The {a-Spades} completed the board and Taujanskas was crushed while Kyriacou sat quietly doing his best to appear unperturbed at being so close to disaster.
