Cowboys Unchivalrous - Merkelis' Ladies Crushed

After just one elimination (that of Nuno Goncalves) so far in the first half hour of play, Arnoldas Merkelis has joined him on the rail after a rather cool big-hand vs. big-hand situation vs. Peter Johansson. Johansson had raised to 7k, and neighbour Merkelis then moved all in. A swift call when it passed back to him, and Merkelis made a sound like something with a puncture as he saw his Q♦ Q♥ in trouble against Johansson's K♠ K♦. No help from the board, and it was handshake-and-exit time.
