Aces Cracked as Fagg Finds a Double

Livello 45 : Blinds 3,000,000/6,000,000, 6,000,000 ante

Denny Lee moved all in from the small blind with a covering stack and John Fagg called off for his last 34,000,000 to put himself at risk.

John Fagg: K♥10♠
Denny Lee: A♥A♦

Fagg was well behind Lee's aces but picked up some flush outs on the 8♠5♠A♠ flop while Lee flopped a set. The flush came in on the 4♠ turn and Lee failed to improve to a full house or quads on the 10♣ river, resulting in Fagg receiving a much-needed double up.

Roh is Fearless; Fagg With No Traction

Livello 45 : Blinds 3,000,000/6,000,000, 6,000,000 ante

Joseph Roh raised to 16,500,000 and Denny Lee made the call. The wheel spun and the dealer presented the 8♠10♠6♦. Both players checked and when the 8♦ fell, Roh went all in for quite a bit more than the pot. Lee shook his head and folded.

John Fagg has gotten one all in shove through in the past level but outside of that it seems he's been unable to find an opportunity to double, as he's been grinding a short stack for the majoirty of the day.

Lee Pulling Away

Livello 44 : Blinds 2,500,000/5,000,000, 5,000,000 ante

John Fagg opened to 10,000,000 from the button and Denny Lee defended from the big blind.

The flop came A♦8♦3♣. Lee checked, Fagg bet 5,500,000 and Lee made the call.

Lee check-called another bet from Fagg on the 6♦ turn, this time for 13,000,000.

Both players checked the J♦ river.

"Ace" Lee stated, revealing A♣4♣ for top pair with a weak kicker. It was a hand Fagg could not beat and Lee took down another pot to extend his lead over the other two players.

Roh Back Pedals

Livello 44 : Blinds 2,500,000/5,000,000, 5,000,000 ante

Heads up to a flop of K♠7♠2♣, Joseph Roh started with a check and Denny Lee bet to the tune of 15,000,000.

Roh responded with a raise to 40,000,000 and Lee took some time with the decision. Lee asked Roh how much started the hand with and once he had an idea of how much he opted to go all in.

Roh didn't take too long before pushing his hand forward and relinquishing the pot.

It continues to be anyone's game as these three duke it out.
