Michael Skomac Eliminated

In da hood
In da hood
Bruno Fitoussi raised to 20,000, Michael Skomac pushed all in for 160,000, but so did Frank Rusnak, shoving his entire stack of 295,000 over the line.

With Fitoussi folding, we had a showdown.

Skomac = {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
Rusnak = {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}

Eyes fixated on the felt...

{K-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{2-Clubs}

Joy for Skomac!

Turn = {2-Clubs}

But then, in the immortal words of Barry Greenstein...

River = {A-Clubs}

It's a cruel game.
