Lee Bests Calamia
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Deon Calamia limped from early position before Denis Lee chose to raise to 2,400 from the next seat over. Blaine Rees called from the big blind, and Calamia also called.
Calamia chose to check the 6♣K♣2♥ flop before Lee chose to bet 3,300. Rees folded, and Calamia called to stay in the hand.
The Q♦ turn led to checks from both players to bring on the 8♣ river.
Calamia and Lee both checked the river to go to a showdown. Calamia showed A♥7♦ for ace high, but Lee was best when he showed 9♠9♦ to drag in the chips.
