Lunkin Cracks Kings to Bust Eames

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

We arrived at the table to find John Eames all in before the flop against Vitaly Lunkin. Eames was looking good holding {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} over Lunkin's {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}.

Eames fell quickly behind, however, as the the flop gave Lunkin three jacks with {Q-Spades}{J-Clubs}{A-Clubs}. The {8-Hearts} rolled off on the turn and the {7-Diamonds} finished off the board, ensuring that Eames would be forced to the rail. He made a quick exit from the tournament area and Lunkin stacked his new chips. His stack now sits around 110,000.

On the other side of the room, a short-stacked Benjamin Volpe was eliminated from play in unknown action.
