Lee Chipping Up Nicely

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

Bernard Lee was kind enough to let us know how he's day been going so far in Event #4: $5,000 No-Limit Hold’em. He's up to 34,400 in chips with one big hand coming from a spade flush before the break.

A player raised to 325 and Lee reraised to 1,125 from the button. His opponent called and the flop came down {J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. Both players checked and the {9-Spades} fell on the turn. The first player bet 1,100 and Lee called.

The river completed the board with the {8-Spades} and action checked to Lee. He fired 2,850 and his opponent called. The player announced a queen for a straight, but Lee revealed the {A-Spades}{K-Spades} for a flush and won the pot.
