Lamb Loses Three Preflop Contests, Re-Enters

Level 5 : 0/0, 3,000 ante

Ben Lamb shoved for 112,000 under the gun and Wai Kin Yong called for his last 94,000 in the next seat. Lamb was ahead with {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades} against {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} but Yong got the best of the {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{K-Spades} board and doubled.

Lamb was down to just 18,000 and Yong got the rest on the next hand, peeling {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} when Lamb found {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}. Yong's victory was confirmed when the {6-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{10-Spades}{7-Spades} rolled out and Lamb needed another bullet.

Lamb was immediately trying to spin his way up and he ended up flipping with {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} against Mikita Badziakouski who held {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}. For the third time in a row, Lamb wasn't able to finish with the best hand as the {7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{8-Hearts} board saw him lose his final bullet.

Lamb, however, bought back in and took a seat on the outer table.
