Lee Makes Great Call

We caught the action between Ronald Lee and Tommy Vedes on the river of a board that showed {k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}. Vedes led out for 6,000, and Lee went deep into the tank. The 6,000 represented most of his remaining stack, but after thinking it over for an extended period of time, he made the call and showed {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}. Vedes mucked his hand, and Lee got some much needed chips.
