Amit Makhija Knocks Out Alex Kostritsyn

After some preflop raising and a flop of {3-Hearts} {3-Spades} {J-Hearts} Alex Kostritsyn and Amit Makhija traded raises until all Kostritsyn's chips were in the pot. His pocket eights trailed Makhija's pocket Kings and when the {2-Clubs} fell on the turn and the {J-Spades} on the river Kostritsyn was eliminated just as Day One ended.
