Hand #192: Ronald Lee raised it up and won the pot.

Hand #193: Fabrizio Baldassari called from the small blind and James Bord checked in the big blind. The flop came down {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and both checked to see the {4-Hearts} on the turn. Baldassari checked and Bord bet out. Baldassari folded and Bord won the pot.

Hand #194: Baldassari raised to 120,000 on the button and won the pot.

Hand #195: Bord raised to 175,000 from the button and Lee moved all in from the small blind. After Baldassari folded, Bord snap-called and the cards were on their backs.

Bord: {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}
Lee: {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

Bord's rail cheered hard for an ace or a king and then the flop was spread... {K-Clubs}{J-Spades}{8-Spades} and Bord took the lead. Lee stood up and started to put his jacked on as the {2-Spades} hit the turn to push him further out the door.

The river completed the board and the crowd erupted. The final card on board was the {K-Diamonds} and the cheer was coming from Bord's section. Bord was jumping up and down with them while they crowded the rail, going nuts for their mate. Lee looked like he had lost everything, but congratulated his opponents and shook their hands, wishing them luck. The kid from Brooklyn, New York took home £376,829 for his finish and we're off to heads-up play.
