Lester Eliminated by Makhija

Jason Lester

On a flop of {Q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}, all the money got in between Jason Lester and Amit Makhija, both of who were short stacked.

Showdown
Makhija: {Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Lester: {Q-Spades}{3-Clubs}

Both players had flopped a set of queens, but Makhija's kicker had him out in front. Neither the {A-Hearts} turn nor {K-Diamonds} river changed a thing and Lester was eliminated right before the dinner break.
