Morry Edelstein Eliminated

[user92162]

Preflop, Morry Edelstein shipped his final 18,500 into the middle preflop. Action folded to Cliff Lee in late position who went into the tank.

"I can come back tomorrow as the short-stack" Lee pondered out loud. "Or I can gamble" he added.

After a solid three minutes more in the tank Lee finally tired of it and said "Ok lets gamble".

He made the call and the other players folded.

Lee tabled {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{q-Hearts}

against Edelstein's {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{7-Hearts}

.

The gamble was a good one the flop spiked {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{q-Diamonds}

{3-Clubs}

to put Lee out in front. The board completed {k-Clubs}

{k-Clubs}

turn and

{2-Clubs}

river to make Lee an ace high flush.

He moves up to 48,500, while Edelstein moves out the door.
