Eights Spell the End for Mouritsen

Shamus
Shamus
A short-stacked Rene Mouritsen was just eliminated after being involved in a three-way all-in. Mouritsen held pocket eights, and his opponents had {J-Spades}{9-Spades} and {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}. A lot of overcards to dodge, there.

An ace flopped, and no eight came to save Mouritsen.
