Campbell Wins an Unexpected One
Level 14
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Picking up the action on the turn, Leon Campbell and Tan Le were heads-up on a board of A♠K♠4♠4♣. Campbell checked from the small blind and Le tossed in a bet of 18,000 in the cutoff. Campbell check-raised all in and Le shrugged as he called off his stack of around 85,000.
Tan Le: A♣6♠
Leon Campbell: A♦8♥
The two players were currently chopping the pot but Le had the better redraw with a flush draw. However, the K♥ hit the river and the table gazed over the board until they finally realized that Campbell's eigh-kicker now came into play. Le was disgusted to find out that he lost the pot and was bounced from the tournament.
