Lee Eliminates Morstoel

Level 16 : Limits 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Thor Morstoel's Day 2 was a short-lived experience. The hand began when Morstoel raised from the cutoff and was called by Lee from the big blind.

Lee checked the 8K5 flop. Morstoel bet and was called by Lee.

The 6 turn led to a bet from Lee, Morstoel raised to commit the last of his chips, and Lee called. Morstoel announced, "Nice hand," before the cards were turned over.

Morstoel showed 1010, but Lee had him bested with a K2.

The Q river was the final nail in the coffin for Morstoel, as he was sent to the rail.
