Lundgren Doubles Through Jones

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 24,000 ante
Vivian Lundgren
Vivian Lundgren

Adam Jones opened from middle position and action folded to Vivian Lundgren in the small blind, who three-bet to 150,000. It was folded back to Jones, who shoved for enough to put Lundgren all in for her last 670,000. Lundgren called and hands were revealed.

Adam Jones: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Vivian Lundgren: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

It was a classic race, but the {j-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} runout kept Lundgren’s queen best and she doubled through Jones to take the massive pot.

Tony Hulbert Eliminated in 8th Place ($1,742)

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Tony Hulbert
Tony Hulbert

Joe Cowley opened from the hijack and was called by Durwood Murray on the button and Shaun Yawkey in the small blind. Tony Hulbert called all in for less.

Action checked to Durwood on the {j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop and he bet 110,000. Everyone else folded and hands were tabled.

Durwood Murray: {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Tony Hulbert: {7-Spades}{5-Spades}

Hulbert was in rough shape and the {9-Hearts} turn and {a-Diamonds} river were of no help — eliminating him in eighth place.
