Nam Le Multitabling

The player in the cutoff seat raised to 12,000 first into the pot. The player on the button moved all in with a big stack, and action came to Nam Le in the big blind. He went into the tank for a minute or so before making the overcall, committing his final 68,200 chips to the pot. The original raiser ducked out to let the two live players duke it out.

Showdown
Button: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}
Nam Le: {A-Clubs} {K-Hearts}

The flop was favorable for Le, giving him another king. In the end, the board read {8-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} {3-Spades} {4-Clubs} {9-Hearts}. Le wins the race, doubling his way up to 144,000 or so.

It's quite an accomplishment for Le, who as we mentioned, is playing two Day 2's today. That ace-king double up bumped him back to a slightly above average stack here in Event #39. He's also still plugging along with 40,000 in Event #40.
