Lee Nelson Busts

An opponent in middle position raised it up to 3,100, and got one caller before the action got to Team PokerStars Pro Lee Nelson who bumped it up to 11,500. Action folded around to the initial raiser who tossed out a handful of yellow chips amounting to 30,000 more, essentially putting Nelson all in for his tournament life. The first caller folded, and Nelson after a careful count of his stack, decided to make the call.

Nelson was behind with the {6-Hearts}{6-Spades} against his opponents {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}. The {6-Clubs} in the door was magic for Nelson, with the rest of the flop coming out {k-Hearts}{a-Spades}.

The {3-Spades} on the turn kept Nelson in the lead, but the river would not be so kind, as it fell the {10-Hearts} eliminating him from the APPT Grand Final.
