Kristjan-Jaan Kosk has been eliminated from the €1,500 Main Event in brutal fashion. The hand could be seen live, as it was on the TV-table.
Lithuania’s Egidijus Matonis min-raised to 160,000 UTG, and was soon faced with a 400,000 three-bet from Kosk (Hi-jack). Matonis responded by moving all in for 2,800,000; Kosk, who’s fairly new to the live poker scene, considered his options for roughly one minute before making the call, being the player at risk with 1,800,000.
Egidijus Matonis: Q♥Q♦
Kristjan-Jaan Kosk: K♦K♣
Kosk was way ahead, but Matonis improved to a set on the 3♦9♥Q♣ flop to take a commanding lead. Just to seal the deal, the Lithuanian improved to quads on the Q♠ turn. After a ceremonial J♥ river, it was declared that Kosk was eliminated in eighteenth place for €7,980.
Egidijus Matonis: 4,700,000
Kristjan-Jaan Kosk: 0
