Arnaud Mattern Eliminates Leon Tsoukernik

Leon Tsoukernik is one of the few players who has been in Monte Carlo for several days. Tsoukernik was the man who entered the €100,000 Super High Roller and then used money he won playing craps to buy his second bullet. That tournament didn't end too well for Tsoukernik and his Grand Final Main Event experience is also something he would rather forget.

Here is his exit hand from the mouth of Team PokerStars Pro Arnaud Mattern:

There was a raise in early position to 500, a call from middle position, Tsoukernik called as did Mattern in the big blind. The flop was {5-} {5-} {6-} with two spades, the pre flop raiser bet 1,025, the player in middle position folded, Tsoukernik moved all-in for around 5,850, Mattern called and the pre flop raiser folded. Mattern turned over {7-} {5-} for trips and Tsoukernik turned over {Q-Spades} {4-Spades} for the flush draw and one over card. The turn and river bricked for Tsoukernik and he was out of the competition.
