Bernard Lee Does Last Longer

Bernard Lee just lost half his stack, then regained it on the very next hand.

In the first pot he raised his opponent's 7,000 flop bet to 15,000 and then released his hand when he was reraised another 10,000. After this hand he was down to 16,000 and one of the other players at the table offered him a last-longer bet.

The next hand saw him all in, holding {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} against {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} and the rockets held up, putting his stack staight back to where it was.

He should have taken the bet.
