Paur Lester

Action folded to Taylor Paur in the small blind and he raised to 3,000. Jason Lester was in the big blind and opted to make the call. Paur immediately bet 4,000 on the {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop only to have Lester raise to 16,000. Paur responded by moving all in and Lester called off for around 37,000.

Paur: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Lester: {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}

Lester had flopped top pair but it was well behind the over pair of Paur. The {J-Spades} turn left Lester drawing to either a nine or ten on the river, but it was not meant to be as the {Q-Spades} peeled off. Lester was eliminated from the tournament while Paur climbed back to around 200,000.
