Zhuk Among Recent Eliminations

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Belasrus' Aliaksei Zhuk, who goes by Alex, qualified for this event on PokerStars, and he was having a great time early on Day 2 when he knocked out both Gaelle Baumann and Annette Obrestad. Unfortunately he went card dead in the last couple levels, and he just got unlucky to meet his demise.

According to him, he had pocket kings and was all in against a player with pocket nines. Zhuk was a favorite, but a nine on the flop would put an end to his first-ever EPT.
