Lee Eliminates Kitsios

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Phil Hellmuth raised to 6,000 from the small blind and he was promptly three-bet by Paul Lee in the big blind to 30,000. Georgios Kitsios moved all in from middle position for his remaining amount of about 70,000.

It folded back around to Hellmuth who went on a mini-rant about what he was about to fold before laying it down. Lee immediately called the all in and turned over {a-Spades}{a-Clubs} which was dominating the {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} of Kitsios.

The run out brought a little sweat as three hearts appeared on a {5-}{4-}{3-}{2-} run out before a blank {7-} secured the Greek's elimination and Lee pulled in new chips as Hellmuth looked on glad that he did indeed fold.
