Lee Wins Sizable Pot
Level 25
: 125,000/250,000, 25,000 ante
We picked up the action on the turn on a board reading 
just as Sparrow Cheung (blind) called off a big Je Ho Lee bet. We could not see how much this was for but there was now 8 million in the pot, making it one of the largest heads-up one we have seen so far.
The 
river saw Cheung, sitting on a stack of 5.5 million, check the action over to Lee who fired for 1.2 million. Cheung agonized over the decision but chose to let it go.

: 125,000/250,000, 25,000 ante
Je Ho Lee made it 650,000 to go on the button and Sparrow Cheung made the call to bring in the 
flop. Cheung check-called the Lee 600,000 c-bet and the 
hit the turn.
The action went check, check and the 
river completed the hand. Now Cheung reached for chips, sliding out two towers of pink 25k chips for a bet of 1 million, which Lee called immediately.
Cheung turned over 
for ten-high and Lee took down the hand with

Double Double for Cheung
Level 26
: 150,000/300,000, 50,000 ante
Things were looking a little ropey for Cheung, who had been whittled down to around 3 million, but the Hong Kong player just made a great fold. We picked up the action on the turn on a board reading 
with close to 500,000 in the pot as Cheung led for 250,000.
Lee shoved immediately, showing Cheung 
when the Hong Kong player made the fold to drop down to 2.5 million.
However, Cheung doubled up the next two hands in a row to climb right back into it. In the first Cheung open shoved for his last 2.5 million from the button with 
and Lee looked him up with 
.
The board ran out 
to see Cheung climb to 4.4 million, which was all-in again the following hand.
Lee raised the button and Cheung shoved from the small blind and was quickly called.
Sparrow Cheung:
Je Ho Lee: 
It was Cheung’s turn with the fish hooks and they held when the board ran out 
and Cheung is now right back in this.

Cheung Takes the Lead
Level 26
: 150,000/300,000, 50,000 ante
Sparrow Cheung has come to play and is not giving up without a fight and has just taken the chip lead for the first time since heads-up play began.
It all started with a Cheung button limp and Lee checked his option from the blinds and it was off to a 
flop. Lee checked, Cheung bet 400,000 and the Korean player check-raised to 900,000, which Cheung quickly called and the paired the board.
Lee now fired for 1.5 million and Cheung called once more, leaving himself roughly 3.3 million behind. As soon as the 
landed on the river Lee moved all-in and Cheung had a decision to make. The Hong Kong player chose to make the call for his tournament life and the cards were turned over.
Lee showed down but was outkicked by Cheung’s 
and the Hong Kong player took a slender lead.

Lee Back in Front
Level 27
: 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante
The first hand back after the break saw Je Ho Lee retake the chip lead. The Korean was the pre-flop aggressor making it 1.1 million to go from the button and Cheung called to bring in the 
flop, checking the action over to Leee, who bet another 1.1 million.
Cheung called once more and the 
hit the turn, with Cheung check-calling a Lee bet of 1.7 million and the river completed the hand and the betting.
Cheung turned over 
but was out-kicked by Lee’s 
and the Korean re-seized the lead.

Double for Cheung
Level 27
: 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante
Chips are changing hands so fast it’s tough to keep up with all the action. We missed the pre-flop action but arrived in time to see Cheung and Lee get all the chips in on a flop of we are not sure who shoved first, but Lee was the button.
Sparrow Cheung:
Je Ho Lee:
The margins between the two pre-flop hands are so narrow you couldn’t fit a piece of paper between them, but it was Lee who held the lead after the flop and he had Cheung covered so it was not looking good. However, while the turn was of no help to Cheung, the sure was and the Hong Kong player evens up the stacks once more.
