Lyons Not Making Moves
Level 32
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
After a middle position raise from Jacky Lee, Pat Lyons moved all in from the big blind for 3,500,000. Lee called and it was off to the flop.
Pat Lyons: A♦10♦
Jacky Lee: K♥Q♣
"How could you call with king high," asked the brash WSOP bracelet winner and WPT champion asked. "I'm the favorite to win this tournament, I'm not making a move."
The flop seemed to defer to Lyons' notoriety, giving him a ten, 3♥J♠10♠, and denying Lee a king or queen on a 6♣5♥ runout. Lyons doubled up to put him back in contention for an event he has declared he is going to win from the moment he sat down at a table.
