McEwen Shown the Nuts
Level 12
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
On a heads-up turn of 4?5?7?8?, Preston McEwen checked to Hyun Lee who bet 22,000. McEwen made the call to see the 9? fall on the river and he decided to lead out for 43,000.
Lee paused for a second and then announced he was all-in, covering McEwen who went into the tank.
After several moments, McEwen decided to make the call but was then shown A?2? by Lee for the backdoor stone-cold nuts while he showed 7?9? for a rivered two-pair.
The pot was then shipped to Lee while McEwen exited the tournament area, vowing to return tomorrow.
