Level 33: 125,000 / 250,000 ante: 250,000
Daehyung Lee

Owen Chong made it 500,000 under the gun before Nishant Kumar three-bet to 1,300,000 from the next seat. When it folded to Daehyung Lee in the big blind, he four-bet shoved for 1,700,000. Chong five-bet to 3,800,000, forcing Kumar to fold and the cards were flipped over.


Daehyung Lee: 2 2


Owen Chong: K K


Lee was in a lot of trouble and needed to find a deuce to keep his Main Event dream alive.


The dealer fanned out a flop of Q 9 6 , keeping Chong's Cowboys ahead.


The 5 on the turn gave Chong a flush draw, and left Lee with just one-out.


It wasn't meant to be for Lee as the 3 appeared on the river, and he was out in twelfth place for TWD 1,114,000 (~$34,380).

Easy Pot for Lee

Level 30: 60,000 / 120,000 ante: 120,000
