Lee Cannot Shake Off Mendoza
In a three-bet pot to the A♦8♠5♦ flop, James Mendoza in the small blind continued for 15,500 and Calvin Lee called from under the gun. The 3♦ turn slowed down Mendoza and he checked, Lee bet 26,000 and Mendoza called.
That led them to the 7♠ river on which Mendoza checked again. Lee grabbed all but two of his chips after some consideration and his bet was worth 139,000 with 1,500 behind. Mendoza reluctantly called and his A♣Q♥ was good, as Lee only had the J♣J♦.
One hand later, he was forced all-in from the big blind and Yu Zhao limped in from under the gun. Bin Leng raised to 10,000 and Zhao folded.
Calvin Lee: J♣4♥ 
Bin Leng: A♣6♦
The Q♥10♥10♣7♠K♥ board sent Lee to the registration desk and he will certainly re-enter shortly. In the meanwhile, Viet Nam's Toan Chan Truong knocked out Martin Sedlak one table over to reduce the field further.
