Lee Doubles Through Vedes

Tommy Vedes and Ronald Lee have been going at each other ever since Vedes joined the table about an hour ago, and for the most part, Lee has gotten the better of Vedes. He just won another big pot off Vedes, that saw their stack sizes flip flop. We got to the table when Vedes was facing an all in move from Lee. Vedes thought about it for about 30 seconds while we were there, then slid forward the chips to make the call. The cards were flipped, and Lee was in great shape.

Lee: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Vedes: {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}

The board ran out {7-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, and Lee scored the big double up. After being down to around 2,700 earlier in the day, Lee is now sitting on over 30,000.
