Seat one opens the action to 8,000. Vitaly Lunkin then goes all in for 38,900. The next player to act thinks for a minute before flat calling. Back around to the original raiser who then goes all in, the flatter insta-calls. IGNITION!

The flatter shows {A-Diamonds} {A-Spades} , Seat one (the original raiser) shows {K-Hearts} {K-Clubs} . Mr Lunkin then tables his powerhouse {K-Spades} {7-Clubs} . Lets run 'em!

The flop came {4-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} and the aces were still looking good. The turn was the {6-Spades} giving Lunkin a double gutshot straight draw. Some "oooh's" and "ahhh's" came from the crowd that had gathered around the table. Then like a Phoenix rising from the ashes, the {9-Clubs} hit the river giving Lunkin the ten high straight.

Lunkin triples up to over 130,000 and is all smiles.
