Lee Takes the Lead

Dan O'Hair

Level 21 : Blinds 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

Andy Lee opened to 250,000 from under the gun with Q♦Q♣ and called a three-bet 450,000 from Kei Tanaka, who was in the cutoff holding A♣7♣.

Lee check-called a 250,000 bet from Tanaka on the 7♠5♠J♦ flop and then led out for 450,000 on the 2♠ turn.

Tanaka let his hand go after a bit of thought and Lee added to his stack.
