Lacay Counterfeited

After a flop of {10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, Jon Eaton was all in and called by Ludovic Lacay. Eaton had {Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for top pair, but Lacay had {6-Spades}{3-Spades} for bottom two.

However, the turn and river were both kings -- {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} -- counterfeiting Lacay's hand and giving Eaton the better two pair and the pot. Eaton has 275,000, while Lacay is still up there with 1.7 million.
