Kostritsyn's Monster No Good

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

2008 Aussie Millions Main Event champion Alexander Kostritsyn is down to his last 5,700 "rubles" after losing a huge three-way all-in against Koray Turker and another opponent.

Turker was the all-in player and tabled {K-Clubs}{J-Spades}{10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, well ahead of his opponent's {9-}{8-}{7-}{5-}. However, Kostritsyn currently had them both with {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}!

Kostritsyn improved to a set on the flop of {Q-Spades}{8-Spades}{10-Diamonds}, but Turker was ahead with the queen-high straight, which held after the turn and river ran out {3-Clubs}, {7-Clubs}. Clearly, there is no justice in the world - and to make matters worse, Kostritsyn appears to have used both of his "rebuy" cards.
