Rudolf's Done For Another Year
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 500 ante
Rudolf Koster's PokerStars.net EPT Snowfest is over after he came unstuck in a hand against Iulian Ruxandescu and one that angered Andrey Gulyy.
Gulyy raised to 16,500 from early position, next to act was Koster and he moved all in for 40,000 chips. The action then folded to Ruxandescu who moved all in for 450,000, which forced Gulyy out of the pot.
Gulyy was unhappy at the fact he was having to fold his pocket eights (he flashed them to Ruxandescu) and he would be even more upset when the board ran out in full.
Koster:
Ruxandescu:
The 
flop brought some "ooh's" from the gathering crowds but any hopes of an upset were soon over as the turn and river were the 
(would have made Gulyy a set) and 
respectively to send Koster to the rail.
