Lunkin Eliminated

We're not sure of the details, but Vitaly Lunkin has been eliminated from the tournament. Many may recall Lunkin as the man who won a bracelet at the 2008 World Series of Poker in a $1,500 event for $629,417 and followed that up in 2009 by winning his second bracelet, not too mention $1,891,018, in a special $40,000 buy-in no-limit event in celebration of the WSOP's 40th Anniversary.

It's nice to see the Russian take his first trip down under and try his luck in the Crown's Aussie Millions Poker Championship.
