Unreal Genius

Chris "Genius28" Lee raised to 2,000 in the small blind and the big blind reraised all in for 8,675. Lee called with {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} and the opponent had {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}. The board came {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and Lee was down to 1,900.

On the next hand, the under-the-gun player limped in and Lee went all in for 1,875 on the button. The small blind called and the big blind folded. Under-the-gun folded. Lee had {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} to {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts} from the SB. The door card was the {J-Diamonds} on a {J-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{6-Clubs}{8-Spades}{5-Spades} board, and Lee was sent packing.
