Stokes Not Taking Any Flack

On the button, Layne Flack raised it up to 8,700. Jamin Stokes reraised all in for 43,000, and Flack made the call.

Showdown
Flack: {K-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}
Stokes: {10-Hearts} {10-Spades}

The board failed to improve Flack as it came {4-Diamonds} {2-Spades} {4-Spades} {4-Hearts} {8-Clubs}. Stokes' tens full was good to win the big double up, and he now has a three-to-one lead over Flack. "Back to the grind," was all Flack could say after the hand.

-----

A few hands later, Flack was down to about 15,000 and he moved all in before the flop with {Q-?} {10-?}. Stokes woke up with {A-?} {Q-?}, and Flack could not get over the hump. He has been eliminated, and Jamin Stokes has earned his spot in the next round.
