Stenbeck Doubles Through Lee

Level 14 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Jamieson Lee raised to 13,000 from mid-position and was called by Troy Quinley on the button. Cindy Stenbeck shoved from the small blind for 45,000 and the big blind quickly folded. Lee asked for a count and when the dealer confirmed the amount, Lee flicked in a green 100,000-value chip but didn't announce anything. The dealer said it was a call but Lee said he wanted to raise. The floor was called over and he deemed it a call as it was only 1 chip that was tossed in. Lee complied by putting in the chips for the call and Quinley quickly folded to let them battle it out.

Cindy Stenbeck: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Jamieson Lee: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

"Oh, you've got it," Lee said when he saw Stenbeck's cards.

The board ran out {5-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} for Stenbeck to hold with the higher pocket pair even though she didn't really realize it as she thought Lee had pocket nines.

"Guess this is much better than just doubling up." Stenbeck said with a smile.
