Lees Eliminates Murray
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Action was on a flop of 10?7?6? with Liam Murray having checked to Johan Lees. Lees bet 7,500 with chip leader Ashton Campbell calling.
Murray then check-raised all in for 36,000. Lees re-raised all in, forcing out Campbell.
"You got eight-nine?" asked Murray.
Liam Murray: Q?10? 
Johan Lees: J?J?
Lees had not flopped a straight, but was still ahead of his opponent. The turn 8? and river 5? changed nothing.
"GG," said Lees as he got up from the table. Meanwhile Campbell was sat shaking his head.
"You had a nine?" Lees asked him, to no reply.
