No More Bullets Left for "yoyoc", Wisbrod

Yori Epskamp

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 140 ante

Earlier, "yoyoc" tried to get Steven van Zadelhoff off a pair of aces which failed. This time, he also lost the chips from his third and final bullet to Christian Rudolph.

It was a cooler this time, as "yoyoc" had flopped top two pair while Rudolph had middle set. All the money flew in on the turn and "yoyoc" couldn't catch his two-outer to be eliminated.

Barak "LuckySecret" Wisbrod, who started the hand with just a few crumbs, was also eliminated and for the Israeli, it was the third bullet as well.
