Lupascu Heralds Bubble Time
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Thomas Eychenne raised to 20,000 in the cutoff and called a subsequent three-bet to 68,000 from Matei Lupascu in the small blind.
Lupascu committed the rest of his 100,000 chips on the J?2?Q? flop and was quickly called by Eychenne.
Matei Lupascu: A?A?8?5? 
Thomas Eychenne: A?J?10?9?
Lupascu was still ahead with his aces, and remained so on the A? turn. However, his set would become second-best on the K? river, with Eychenne's Broadway eliminating Lupascu in 37th.
