Ruddy Hell

After nursing a short stack for about a level, Joe Ruddy finally took the plunge, moving all in on the big blind with {A-Hearts} {10-Clubs}. Early-position pot-opener Atanas Gueorguiev was going nowhere with his {A-Spades} {K-Clubs} and the {8-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {Q-Clubs} {A-Clubs} board helped the all-in player not a bit.

As he left in 22nd place, he told the rail with a shrug, "Jack-deuce, eight-deuce, nine-deuce, eight-four," explaining how the {A-Hearts} {10-Clubs} had suddenly seemed so appealing after a run of filthy cards.
