Lee Rises Even More

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Alex Lee is having a very good day so far, and he just won another pot to reach 150k chips.

He was found on a {3-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} flop, where he had bet 5,800, and his opponent raised to 16,300. Lee called after some tanking and the {10-Clubs} came on the turn. His opponent bet 18,300 this time, and the moment his chips hit the felt, Lee announced quickly all in.

His opponent's fold was equally quick, and Lee won a sizable pot without showdown.

Chin Yong Lee Shoves Light and Busts

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Chin Yong Lee is another casualty in the Main Event. The action folded to him in the small blind, and he open shoved for 35,900 with {3-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, putting in the middle more than 40 big blinds. The big blind player tanked for a bit, and then called with {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}, and Lee busted from the Main Event. As some players in the table said after the hand, he had done this move many times in this table, but this time it didn't get through.

The Big-Stacks Affair

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Alexis Gillot belongs in the elit club of players with over 200k chips in Day 1a of the Main Event. In his last hand, he clashed with another big stack, a player with over 150k chips, and he managed to win a big pot.

The board was on the turn showing {4-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} with 18,000 in the pot, and Gillot check-called a bet at 13,500.

The {3-Hearts} on the river completed the board, and this time Gillot check-called a bet at 27,500. After his call, he showed quickly {4-Spades}{4-Clubs} with a flopped set and a rivered boat, with his opponent mucking his hand.
