Sotiropoulos Picks Off Lee for All the Money

Level 3 : 75/150, 25 ante

Cutoff Georgios Sotiropoulos opened to 400 and small blind Ho Yin Lee three-bet to 1,600. Sotiropoulos scanned Lee's stack, and called.

Lee continued with a bet of 1,500 on the {2-Clubs}{5-Spades}{Q-Clubs} flop, and Sotiropoulos stuck around. The turn was the {A-Spades} and Lee threw in another 3,300. Sotiropoulos kept hanging around, calling once more.

Lee wasn't done barreling just yet, firing his remaining 14,625 on the {9-Spades} river.

"How much?" Sotiropoulos asked, and called within a minute. Lee tabled his {5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, knowing his tournament was over before 2 p.m.

Sotiropoulos showed {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for turned two pair, raking in the giant pot.
