Kroon's Brutal Elimination

Marilynn Kroon made it 17,000 and a player on the button moved all in for 59,500, Kroon made the call and cards were tabled.

Kroon: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Opponent: {K-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

Kroon was in an awful spot and was going to need an ace to save her. The board came {9-Clubs}{j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and she was forced to surrender the pot to her opponent. After the hand Kroon sat with around 115,000.

The very next hand we found Kroon raising from under the gun to 17,000. A player in middle position moved all in for more, and action folded back to Kroon who made the call.

Kroon: {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Opponent: {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

Kroon found herself in another tough spot, and was going to need a queen to continue her great run. The board came {5-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and Kroon was eliminated. Kroon's elimination proves that sometimes it doesn't matter what you do, its just not in the cards.

Luske Loses

We don't know what the exact action was preflop, but on the {Q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds} flop we saw a short stack player move all in for 23,000, and Marcel Luske call.

Luske: {A-Spades}{6-Hearts}
Opponent: {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Luske was basically dead in the water, and a {k-Clubs} on the turn made it official. The {j-Hearts} on the river was meaningless and the short stack doubled.

Luske: {A-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Bjorn: {k-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

The turn came the {10-Clubs} and the {7-Spades} fell on the river giving Bjorn the best hand.
