The curse of the SMS
Russel Joselowsky has the lucky distinction of being the sms competition winner from the All Africa Poker Channel. He unfortunately also has the dubious distinction of being the first player eliminated in this All Africa Poker Tournament.
In his defence, he found himself in the unlucky position of holding pocket Queens against pocket Kings. This was not his night and he has been eliminated in 113th place.
Better luck next time Russel.
