PokerStars Team Pros Chris Moneymaker & Felipe Ramos

Unfortunately, Brazilian PokerStars Team Pro Felipe Ramos just busted in the money of the National High Roller. Ramos banked $243,000 for 13th place.

Fortunately, he immediately registered for the PokerStars Championship Sochi Main Event just before the break and instantly found a hand to play and give himself a huge boost up the counts.

We missed the preflop action but Ramos and four tablemates including Pokerstars teammate Chirs Moneymaker — who is sitting to Ramos' immediate right — paid 700 to see a {10-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{j-Clubs} flop.

After it was checked all the way around to the player in late position, they fired out a bet of 2,100. Action folded back around to Ramos who bumped it up to 6,900. His opponent called.

The turn was the {2-Clubs} and Ramos led with a bet of 8,500. His opponent called. The {2-Clubs} completed the board on the river and both players checked. Ramos tabled {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}, besting his opponent's {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}.

A big smile crossed Ramos' face as he knew he got lucky on the river and Moneymaker was sure to let him know, tossing out a few needles about Ramos binking his first hand.
