Karl Skolin was all-in with his last 4,000 from under the gun. David Hu raised to 20,000 from the cutoff but folded when Luc Vanhaesendonck jammed for 130,000 from the small blind.
Skolin was all-in blind and was pleased to see his 
but that joy fizzled away after seeing his opponent's 
.
Skolin could not connect on the 
runout and was ousted before the money.
