Lee Sends Pillon For an Early Shower

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
James Pillon
James Pillon

James Pillon jammed for 5,400 from under the gun, and Brian Hunkins called in the hijack. Yongjae Lee then three-bet to 30,000, and after some thought, Hunkins made the call.

With Pillon already all-in, Hunkins checked the 35J flop, and Lee immediately moved all in for his remaining 39,200. Hunkins went deep into the tank before reluctantly folding.

James Pillon: KQ All in
Yongjae Lee: AK

Hunkins immediately flinched when he saw he had folded to just ace-high.

Lee's big slick held on the 8 turn and 6 river, and Pillon's stack was sent over to Lee.
