Jan Skampa Eliminated

The pace of eliminations has been brutally fast to start Day 2 of this event. Some players who brought 60 or more big blinds into the day have been eliminated in the first forty minutes of play. One of those players is Jan Skampa. Skamps was all in with {a-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} against the {k-Hearts} {j-Diamonds} of Chris Lindh. The board ran out {k-Spades} {10-Hearts} {10-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {q-Clubs} to give Lindh a full house, tens full of kings, and the best hand.

We knew things were going to be quick to start the day but we didn't expect them to be this quick. The calls of "Winner on [table number]" are punctuating the cricket-chirp of shuffled chips every few minutes. We're already down to 120 players.
