Stewart Rinses Le and Busts Lee
Players were already three-ways and looking at the 8♠10♥2♠ flop with Kevin Lee in the big blind, Wei Han Le in middle position and Scott Stewart in the cutoff. The pot stood at around 20,000.
Le had just lost the majority of his stack after doubling up another player in one of the first hands of the day and had committed around half his remaining stack to the pot pre-flop. Le jammed for his remaining 8,200 on the flop and both Lee and Stewart called.
The A♦ was turned, Le bet15,000 and Stewart called, taking them to the 9♥ river.
Le bet 35,000, Stewart paused before moving all in for 76,500, asking for around a third of Le's remaining chips.
After around 2 minutes of tanking, and doing some pot calculations out loud, Le called.
Kevin Lee: 7♠6♠
Scott Stewart: Q♠J♠
Wei Han Le: A♥2♥
Stewart was first to show his straight, which held up against Le's two pair. Lee had flopped a flush draw and missed on the runout, ending his tournament life less than an hour into Day 2.
