Lech Leaves Before Break; Rege Regulated to Railbird
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Michael Lech got his 118,000 remaining chips in from the cutoff against Gary Fisher in the small blind.
Michael Lech: J♥J♦
Gary Fisher: A♠10♥
Lech's jacks remained ahead on the 10♠Q♠Q♣ flop and 6♠ turn, but the 5♠ river brought a fourth spade on the board. Fisher made the nut flush, sending Lech out as the tables around went on break.
Just prior to the hand, Gianas Rege was all in and at risk at another table with pocket nines against pocket jacks. Unable to find a set, he too was eliminated from the Main Event.
