Back-and-Forth Battle Between Kay and Lee

Three players saw a flop of {4-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and the player in the big blind checked to Matthew Kay in middle position. He casually put out a bet of 100,000, which was called by Hoi Lee in the cutoff. The big blind got out of the way and it was heads up to the {3-Spades} turn. This time it was Kay who checked, opening the door for Lee to fire out 150,000.

Kay thought for a brief moment before making the call and then checking when the {4-Hearts} appeared on the river. Lee checked behind and ended up mucking when Kay rolled over {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}.
