Frustrated Lee

In Hand #36, Paul Lee flicked his cards towards the dealer with a look of disgust on his face. He appears frustrated that he hasn't hit any flops yet. Lee started with 36% of the chips in play but has not been able to throw his big stack around and bully the rest of his table. When he's raised pots like in Hand #33 and #34, no one has given him any action and everyone has folded. Lee still holds the chip lead, but Carlos Mortensen and Guy Laliberte have been narrowing the margin.
