Lee Wins Blind vs Blind Battle against Prom

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The action folded to Sreyleap Prom in the small blind and she shoved all-in. Sangjun Lee was in the big blind and called relatively fast.

Sangjun Lee: {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Sreyleap Prom: {j-Hearts}{10-Spades}

Lee had Prom dominated and the flop came {k-Spades}{9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, giving him top pair but Prom still had a double gut-shot to catch up. Unfortunately for her the turn {3-Hearts} and river {a-Spades} were no help, taking almost 33 percent of her stack.

Jared Griener
Jared Griener

With over 100,000 in the middle and board reading {3-}{10-}{5-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, Jared Griener was heads up in a big pot with the table chip leader.

Action was on Griener as he made roughly a 30,000 turn bet.

His opponent, who had roughly 900,000 chips, quickly shoved all in and Griener snap called tabling {5-Clubs}{5-Spades} for a flopped set. His opponent let out a sigh of disappointment and turned over {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} for a middle pocket pair.

The river {a-Diamonds} secures Griener a huge double to over 950,000. His opponent was left with around 600,000 and is still above average chip stack.
