Ajez Doubles Into the Lead

Level 20 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante
Najeem Ajez
Najeem Ajez

Hun Lee and Najeem Ajez clashed once more and a pot of 616,000 had emerged to the {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts} turn. Ajez moved all in for 584,000 and Lee eventually tossed in calling chips. The rail of Ajez once again exploded while the cards were turned over.

Najeem Ajez: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Hun Lee: {k-Spades}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

Ajez was behind but had plenty of outs with his wrap and flush draw. Sure enough, the {6-Hearts} appeared on the river and that improved Ajez to a flush, suddenly sending Lee to the far-shortest stack with three players remaining.
