Lee Markholt - Event #43
Lee Markholt - Event #43
We caught up to this hand on the flop. The board read {8-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} and Lee Markholt had all his chips in the center against a lone opponent. The player tabled {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts} but Markholt's {6-Hearts} {6-Spades} had him beat.

The turn and river came the {2-Diamonds} and {10-Spades} respectively and Markholt's set held. He doubled up to just under 35,000 on the hand.
