Rubie Almost Dead

Brendon Rubie will be wishing he never got out of bed, now sitting behind a tiny stack of less than two big blinds. The hand in question started when the action folded around to Brendon Rubie in the cut-off. He moved all in and the play was on Lunardi on the button. Lunardi moved all in and the blinds got out of the way. The chip stacks looked similar, but the cards were turned over before the stacks were counted out.

Rubie: {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Lunardi: {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Rubie was in trouble and the news got worse when the dealer flipped over a {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} flop. The turn and river brought no help for Rubie and the big pot went to Lunardi. The stacks were counted out, with Rubie have Lunardi covered by 32,000 in chips.
