Lee and Leas Are Lost

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

From late position, Hun Wei Lee three-bet shoved all in for 34,100 and Asj Taylor reshoved out of the small blind to enforce a fold from the initial raiser.

Lee: {4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Taylor: {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

The {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{8-Hearts} board blanked out and Lee was sent to the rail.

Over on table 34, there was a raise as well and David Leas then got his short stack in. Javier Zarco repushed from one seat over to isolate successfully.

Leas: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Zarco: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}

Again the player at risk found no help with the board running out {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and the second seat open within one minute was confirmed.
