Lee and Andersson Bust to Bubble the Tournament
There were two all in and calls during hand for hand play. In the first one, Hon Cheong Lee opened from middle position to 15,000 and Ange Besnainou called on the button, as did Thomas Lilamand from the big blind.
After it checked to Lee on the Q?8?3? flop, he fired out a bet of 20,000 and was met with a shove all in for 105,000 by Besnainou. Lilamand folded, but Lee made the call for his last 60,000.
Hon Cheong Lee: A?A?
Ange Besnainou: Q?Q?
Besnainou had flopped top set and had Lee drawing to just two outs. The 9? turn and 9? didn't give Lee the ace he needed to stay alive, and he had busted just shy of making Day 2.
At the same time on another table, Fredrik Andersson got his 185,000 into the middle preflop with Salvatore Camarda making the call to put him at risk.
Fredrik Andersson: A?K?
Salvatore Camarda: 8?8?
The flop of 8?K?5? gave Camarda a set of eights and Andersson had to hit running cards to make it to Day 2. The 9? turn and 10? river sealed Andersson's exit from the tournament at the hands Camarda.
