Well, that was an unfortunate all-in for Oleksander Kosholap.
He found K-K and a taker in Mateusz Moolhuizen.
The two exchanged some raises and were all-in for a 1.3m pot before the flop.
But Moolhuizen turned over A-A for the only hand that has kings beat.
The flop gave Kosholap a set with a third king but an ace appeared as well and so the entire pot went to Moolhuizen.
Now Kosholap is down to only a couple of big blinds.
Update: Kosholap busted the next hand.
