Keith Lehr Eliminated

A roller-coaster ride for Keith Lehr.

He raised to 28,000 with {K-Hearts} {9-Hearts}, only for Lee Watkinson to go all in for a total of 54,000. Feeling committed, Lehr called. Watkinson was holding pocket tens and the board didn't do anything for Lehr, who was left with just 40,000 while Watkinson doubled up to 110,000.

He doubled up a few hands later, moving all in from the big blind with {Q-Spades} {10-Diamonds} after Benjamin Zamani raised the pot from the small blind with {7-Spades} {8-Spades}. Zamani failed to hit and Lehr was back up to 80,000.

However, a few hands after that, Ayaz Mahmood raised utg and Lehr reraised all in from the big blind. Mahmood called.

Lehr: A-9
Mahmood: 4-4

No help for Lehr from the board, and his roller-coaster ride over, it's time for him to disembark and shakily leave the Brasilia Room.
