However, his good run recently came to an end when he shoved for about 150,000 from the button with Ilya Andreev calling.
Lactaoen:
Andreev:
Lactaoen needed to improve, but was unable to when the board ran out . Lactaoen might have wished for things to have worked out differently, but nobody can deny he had a great run while it lasted.
