Ace-High Win for Eames

Joseph Kuether fired out 3,200 on the {J-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} flop only to have John Eames bump it to 7,500.

Kuether made the call as the {Q-Spades} rolled off on the turn and both players checked it through to see the {5-Diamonds} revealed on the river.

Going into the tank for a few moments, Kuether would eventually chose to push out 7,500, which Eames called, tabling his {A-Spades}{9-Spades} to best Kuether's {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. He slipped to 21,500 while Eames moves to 115,000.
