Aces for Andrulis
In a hand lasting a couple minutes into the break, popular young Lithuanian Kristijonas Andrulis picked up a very hefty pot and is now at a commanding 85,000.
The board read when we arrived and there was already around 20,000 in the pot. Jean Marc Thomas had checked, and Andrulis had bet 6,000. Thomas tanked, and eventually called - and a moment later he mucked when Andrulis turned over .
Andrulis has a fine record in EPT side events - he took down two side events at EPT Tallinn, including the high roller event, and then won another side event and came second in the high roller at Vilamoura too. His best finish in an EPT Main Event so far was 23rd place at Copenhagen last year, but it's got to be just a matter of time before the affable Litho makes a big splash in one of these.
