Lee Takes With Superior Kicker

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

With roughly 8,000 in the middle on a {9-Spades}{5-Spades}{2-Clubs}{q-Hearts} board, Janet Kosloff in the small blind and Richard Lee in the hijack each committed another 5,500 to the pot.

On the {8-Clubs} river, Kosloff put out two red T-5,000 tournament chips for a bet of 10,000, and Lee called after some brief deliberation.

Kosloff tabled {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}, but it was no good as Lee showed {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades} to take the pot with a slightly better kicker.
