Nimylovych Falls to Lee
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Hon Cheong Lee opened the button and then called the shove of Taras Nimylovych in the small blind, who ripped in around 20,000.
Taras Nimylovych: A♦4♦
Hon Cheong Lee: A♥K♦
Nimylovych's situation went from bad to almost insurmountable as the K♥K♣5♥ flop gave Lee trips. Running cards were needed for the Ukrainian player, but the 5♦ turn left him drawing dead. A meaningless 3♣ filled out the board on the river, and Nimylovych was sent on his way.
