Lees Doubles His Short Stack
Level 15
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Action folded around to the blinds, where Johan Lees shoved for his last 76,000. Timon Prill took a peek at his hole cards in the big blind and looked a big pained, but stuck in a call to put Lees at risk.
Johan Lees: A♦8♥
Travis Endersby: Q♠7♣
The board ran out 8♣5♦7♦2♦10♠ — improving both players to a pair but leaving Lees best with eights to award him the double up.
