Lees Eliminates Murray
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Action was on a flop of 10♣7♥6♠ with Liam Murray having checked to Johan Lees. Lees bet 7,500 with chip leader Ashton Campbell calling.
Murray then check-raised all in for 36,000. Lees re-raised all in, forcing out Campbell.
"You got eight-nine?" asked Murray.
Liam Murray: Q♥10♠ 
Johan Lees: J♠J♥
Lees had not flopped a straight, but was still ahead of his opponent. The turn 8♦ and river 5♠ changed nothing.
"GG," said Lees as he got up from the table. Meanwhile Campbell was sat shaking his head.
"You had a nine?" Lees asked him, to no reply.
