Lee Gets Called Light

Level 2 : 200/300, 300 ante

Stanley Lee opened to 800 from under the gun and was called by the button. The two players went heads-up to a flop of {j-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs}. Lee continued for 900 and his opponent stuck around to see the {10-Hearts} on the turn.

Both players checked and the {q-Hearts} completed the board. Lee put together a bet of 2,500 and his opponent flicked in a chip to call. Lee turned over {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for just ace-high and his opponent revealed {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a pair of sixes to claim the pot.
