Lee Value Bets Knaves

Hand #3: Ronald Lee raised to 45,000 in early to middle position and Brian Powell made the call in the big blind.

Both players checked the {K-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{9-Hearts} flop, but Lee was less hospitable on the {3-Hearts}, betting out for 51,000. Powell made the call.

The river came the {7-Clubs}. Powell checked, triggering a bet of 86,000 from Lee. He didn't seem confident, but Powell indeed made the call finding that Lee had value bet {J-}{J-}.

There were fears in the media room of a late finish, but if the opening hands are anything to go by, it seems as though the final nine are here to play rather than fold their way up the ladder.
