Lamkin on the Rise

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

After a couple of preflop raises, Joseph Lamkin and his opponent got all of their chips in the middle. Lamkin turned over {a-Hearts}{j-Spades} and was up against the {j-}{j-} of his opponent who was at risk for just under 300,000.

The flop came {a-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Spades} to give Lamkin the lead with a pair of aces. He stood up from his chair and clapped his hands when the board ran out {7-Clubs} and {k-Diamonds} as he held on to eliminate his opponent.
