Stephen Lee Eliminated in 17th Place ($16,139)
Level 35
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Stephen Lee moved all in for 1,400,000 from middle position and Yiannis Liperis put him at risk from the small blind.
Stephen Lee: Q♦4♦
Yiannis Liperis: J♣J♦
The flop came 6♥9♦7♦, giving Lee a flush draw, but he didn't seem to need it as the Q♠ hit the turn. Lee was one card away from a double-up, but the J♥ on the river gave Liperis a set.
The table couldn't believe it, but Lee was out in 17th after that brutal river.
