Himes Turns Trips to Stay Alive

Level 18
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
The flop read J?4?7?. David Lucchesi bet about 100,000, Charles Himes jammed all in and Lucchesi snap-called.
David Lucchesi: Q?Q?
Charles Himes: K?J?
The turn immediately put Himes into the lead as the J? plopped down. The river was the 9? and Himes gained a huge boost to his stack.
