Vitaly Lunkin

Vitaly Lukin, winner of the $40,000 No-Limit Hold'em tournament at the 2009 WSOP, has just been knocked out.

First Lunkin was granted another chance when he was all in holding {8-}{5-} versus Shaun Deeb's {Q-}{10-}. The board ran out {J-Clubs}{9-}{3-}{10-}{Q-} to give the Russian pro a straight, but he still only had 2,100 chips.

On the next hand Paul Mannoni raised and Lunkin called all in from the small blind. Kerry Welsh called from the big blind and the flop brought {4-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}. Mannoni called a bet from Welsh and the turn was the {7-Hearts}. Welsh bet again and Mannoni called.

The river was the {J-Hearts} and Mannoni folded when Welsh bet again. Welsh showed {Q-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and he knocked out Lunkin who showed {Q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}.

From the hijack Jeff Thompson raised and George Danzer three-bet from the small blind. Thompson called and the flop brought {Q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs} on which Danzer bet and Thompson called.

The turn was the {2-Diamonds} and this time Danzer check-called. On the river the {A-Hearts} hit and Danzer checked after which Thompson bet.

"I thought you had a six before and I was check-raising the river, but now..." Danzer said.

Danzer called in silence only to see Thompson table {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

"Wow ! Nice bet!" the German said, as he asked if his opponent knew that he had two nines. Danzer lost this pot and Thompson remained among the big stacks.
